Is it any wonder why I love watching this movie so much? LOL!

thursday thirteen
Thirteen lines/quotes I love from the first
“Pirates of the Carribean” movie

1. Elizabeth: Captain Barbossa, I am here to negotiate the cessation of hostilities against Port Royal.

2. Barbossa: I’m disinclined to acquiesce to your request. Means “no”.

3. Barbossa: First, your return to shore was not part of our negotiations nor our agreement so I must do nothing. And secondly, you must be a pirate for the pirate’s code to apply and you’re not. And thirdly, the code is more what you’d call “guidelines” than actual rules. Welcome aboard the Black Pearl, Miss Turner.

4. Elizabeth: So that’s it, then? That’s the secret, grand adventure of the infamous Jack Sparrow. You spent three days lying on a beach drinking rum.
Jack Sparrow: Welcome to the Caribbean, love.

5. Jack Sparrow: One question about your business, boy, or there’s no use going: This girl… how far are you willing to go to save her?
Will Turner: I’d die for her.
Jack Sparrow: Oh good. No worries then.

POTC6. Jack Sparrow: Why is the rum gone?
Elizabeth: One: because it is a *vile* drink that turns even the most respectable men into complete scoundrels. Two: that signal is over a thousand feet high. The entire royal navy is out looking for me, do you think there is even the slightest chance they wont see it?
Jack Sparrow: But why is the rum gone?

7. Jack Sparrow: [Imitating Elizabeth] “It must have been terrible for you, Jack. Must have been terrible.” Well, it bloody is now.
[Seeing Norrington’s ship off shore]
Jack Sparrow: There’ll be no living with her after this.

8. Will Turner: You cheated.
Jack Sparrow: Pirate.

9. Jack Sparrow: I think we’ve all arrived at a very special place. Spiritually, ecumenically, grammatically.

10. Jack Sparrow: You think this wise, boy… crossing blades with a pirate?
Will Turner: You threatened Miss Swann.
Jack Sparrow: Only a little.

11. Will Turner: You didn’t beat me. You ignored the rules of engagement. In a fair fight, I’d kill you.
Jack Sparrow: That’s not much incentive for me to fight fair, then, is it?

12. Barbossa: For too long I’ve been parched of thirst and unable to quench it. Too long I’ve been starving to death and haven’t died. I feel nothing. Not the wind on my face nor the spray of the sea. Nor the warmth of a woman’s flesh.
[steps into moonlight becoming a skeleton]
Barbossa: You best start believing in ghost stories Miss Turner. You’re in one.

13. Jack Sparrow: You need to find yourself a girl mate. Or perhaps the reason you practice three hours a day is that you already found one, and are otherwise incapable of wooing said strumpet. You’re not a eunuch are you?

Okay, so maybe I have a weird fascination with them lately, but I think they can be cool. Take a look at the size of these monsters found in various parts of Africa. No, these pictures are NOT photoshopped! The sizes are real…I actually researched them!
