Yes, there it is, a dusty gray-black pillar rearing on the horizon: the Dark Tower, the place where all Beams, all lines of force, converge.
Да, вон она, серовато-черная колонна, подпирающая горизонт: Темная Башня, та самая, где пересекаются все Лучи, средоточие Силы.

It seemed as though, to keep itself from falling, it required only the support of its slenderest pillar, which, by some miracle of equilibration, held up the gaping roof.
Казалось, что эта развалина могла бы держаться на одном тоненьком столбике, который каким-то чудом сохранял бы равновесие, подпирая пробитую кровлю.

Whitcross is no town, nor even a hamlet; it is but a stone pillar set up where four roads meet: whitewashed, I suppose, to be more obvious at a distance and in darkness.
Уиткросс - не город, даже не деревня: это всего лишь каменный столб, поставленный на перекрестке четырех дорог и выбеленный мелом, вероятно, для того, чтобы быть более приметным на расстоянии и в темноте.

He picked up a struggling worker trolley by its handle and, with some satisfaction, smashed it against a pillar until its wheels dropped off.

Now the real victors of the purge were Himmler and Heydrich, and the second pillar of the regime would be the Gestapo and not the Army.
На самом же деле подлинными победителями в прошедшей чистке были Гиммлер и Гейдрих, и второй опорой режима стала не армия, а гестапо.

Interfaith dialogue is a pillar of prevention in the area of religion and belief, for the area of religion has the potential to become an unparalleled forum in which individuals and groups can open up and come together.
Межрелигиозный диалог представляет собой основу для принятия мер по предупреждению в области религии и убеждений, поскольку религиозная тематика может послужить уникальной основой для обмена идеями и встреч между отдельными людьми и группами.

With his reputation for sagacity, for far-sightedness and the clever extrication of others, he, who stood for proprietary interests, to become the plaything of that Law of which he was a pillar!

I clearly remember my excitement, tingling excitement, each time I got out of the house and set myself into position to observe the pillar.
Я ясно помню, как трепетал от возбуждения каждый раз, когда выходил из дома и, заняв удобное положение, наблюдал за башней.
