Quote:Jack Sparrow

Spoken by Jack Sparrow
"All right, I confess: it is my intention to commandeer one of these ships, pick up a crew in Tortuga, raid, pillage, plunder, and otherwise pilfer my weaselly black guts out."

- to Murtogg and Mullroy

"I'm in the market, as it were."

- to James Norrington on his search for a ship

"Commodore Norrington, My effects, please! And My hat!"

- To James Norrington

"You will always remember this as the day that you almost caught Captain Jack Sparrow!"

- to James Norrington's men

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

- to William Turner

"The deepest circle of hell is reserved for betrayers and mutineers."

- to Koehler and Twigg

"Commandeer. We're going to commandeer that ship. Nautical term."

- to William Turner

"Son, I'm Captain Jack Sparrow. Savvy?"

- to Gillette

"Ah, but fortunately I know how to counter it [bad luck]. The man who did the waking buys the man who was sleeping a drink. Then the sleeping man drinks it while listening to a proposition from the man who did the waking."

- to Joshamee Gibbs after waking him

"Mr. Cotton, do you have the courage and fortitude to follow orders and stay true in the face of danger and almost certain death? Mr. Cotton, answer, man!"

- to Cotton in Tortuga

"When you marooned me on that godforsaken spit of land you forgot one very important thing, mate&hellip;I'm Captain Jack Sparrow."

- to Hector Barbossa

"Me, I'm dishonest. And a dishonest man you can always trust to be dishonest. Honestly. It's the honest ones you want to watch out for. Because you can never predict when they're going to do something incredibly&hellip;stupid."

- to Hector Barbossa

"Welcome to the Caribbean, love."

- to Elizabeth Swann

""Must have been terrible for you to be trapped here, Jack. Must have been terrible for you"&mdash;Well it bloody is now!"

- imitating Elizabeth Swann on Black Sam's Spit

"Elizabeth, it would never have worked out between us darling. I'm sorry. And Will&hellip;Nice hat."

- to Elizabeth Swann and William Turner

"Now, bring me that horizon&hellip;And really bad eggs. Drink up, me 'earties, yo ho!"

- onboard the Black Pearl; last lines

"No. If we don't have the key, we can't open whatever it is we don't have that it unlocks, so what purpose would be served in finding whatever need be unlocked&mdash;which we don't have&mdash;without first having found the key what unlocks it?"

- to Joshamee Gibbs

"Why is the rum always gone? [staggers drunkenly] Oh, that's why."

- onboard the Black Pearl

"Oh. So it's you then. He shanghaied you into his service, eh?"

- to William "Bootstrap Bill" Turner on Davy Jones

"As you were, gents."

- to his sleeping crew

"Alas, my children, this is the day you will always remember as the day you almost&mdash; [a wave splashes over him; mumbles] Captain Jack Sparrow."

- to the Pelegostos

"Yes to the first, and yes to the second, but only insofar as we keep to the shallows as much as possible."

- to Gibbs, after escaping from Isla de Pelegostos

"I have every faith in your reconciliatory navigational skills Mister Gibbs, now where is that monkey? I want to shoot something."

- to Joshamee Gibbs on Jack the monkey

"No. You want you to find this, because the finding of this finds you incapacitorially finding and or locating in your discovering the detecting of a way to save your dolly belle, ol' what's-her-face. Savvy?"

- to William Turner

"Look! An undead monkey. Top that!"

- to Tia Dalma

"Still rooting for you, mate!"

- to James Norrington

"One word love&hellip;curiosity. You long for freedom. You long to do what you want to do because you want it. To act on selfish impulse. You want to see what it feels like. One day you won't be able to resist."

- to Elizabeth Swann

"I love those moments. I like to wave at them as they pass by."

- to Elizabeth Swann on the chance to do something brave

"Oh, shut it!"

- to Hadras

"Oh, bugger."

- repeated line

"I'll handle this, mate. Oy, fish-face! Lose something? Eh? Scungilli! [Mis-steps, falls down the stairs out of view. Pause, then Jack's hand, holding the jar comes back into view] Got it! Come to negotiate, eh, have you, you slimy git! Look what I've got. [sing-song voice] I've got a jar of dirt! I've got a jar of dirt! And guess what's inside it!"

- to Davy Jones

"Where is it? Where's the thump-thump?"

- searching for the heart of Davy Jones

"Hello, beastie."

- to the Kraken; last line

"My peanut!"

- first line

"Now we're being followed by rocks. Never heard that before."

- in Davy Jones' Locker

"The Locker, you say?"

- to Joshamee Gibbs

"Why should I sail with any of you? Four of you have tried to kill me in the past. One of you succeeded."

- to William Turner, Hector Barbossa, Tia Dalma and Elizabeth Swann

"I quite like the sound of that: Captain Jack Sparrow&hellip;the last pirate."

"Close your eyes and pretend it's all a bad dream. That's how I get by."

- to Cutler Beckett

"We must fight&hellip;to run away."

- hallucination to Jack Sparrow

"Oy! My pistol!"

- to Clanker on board the Flying Dutchman

"Ladies! Will you please shut it! Listen to me. Yes, I lied to you. No, I don't love you. Of course it makes you look fat. I've never been to Brussels. It is pronounced "egregious". By the way, no, I've never actually met Pizarro but I love his pies. And all of this pales into utter insignificance in light of the fact that my ship is once again gone. Savvy?"

- to Scarlett and Giselle

"You are a dissapointment. A big dissapointment."

- Jack Sparrow while dueling

"Better being hung than being someone's dinner."

- Jack Sparrow to Will Turner

"Good sense? Me? You have no idea who you're dealing with..."

- Jack Sparrow to John Stryke on Jack having good sense

Spoken about Jack Sparrow

"That's got to be the best pirate I've ever seen."

"Idiot. He has nowhere to go but back to the noose!"

- Gillette

"We've had dealings in the past. And we've each left our mark on the other."

- Cutler Beckett to William Turner

"Captain Jack Sparrow? Owes me four doubloons. Heard he was dead."

- Sailor to William Turner

"Singapore. That's what I heard. Drunk, with a smile on his face. Sure as the tide, Jack Sparrow turn up in Singapore."

- Sailor to William Turner

"You came back. I always knew you were a good man."

- Elizabeth Swann

"Aye. And already the world seems a bit less bright. He fooled us all, right till the end, but I guess that honest streak finally won out. To Jack Sparrow!" "Never another like Captain Jack." "He was a gentleman of fortune, he was." "He was a good man."

- Joshamee Gibbs, Ragetti, Pintel and Elizabeth Swann

"What would you, hm? What would any of you be willing to do, hm? Would you sail to the ends of the Earth and beyond, to fetch back witty Jack and him precious Pearl?"

- Tia Dalma to Jack's crew

"The only reason I would want Jack Sparrow returned from the land of the dead, is so I could send him back myself!"

- Sao Feng

"Do you suppose he plans it all out or makes it up as he goes along?"

- Groves to Cutler Beckett

Dialogue
"You've been captain of the Black Pearl now for thirteen years. That was our agreement!" "Technically I was only captain for two years, then I was viciously mutinied upon." "Then you were a poor captain, but a captain nonetheless. Have you not introduced yourself all these years as Captain Jack Sparrow? Ha ha ha!"

- Davy Jones and Jack Sparrow

"Have you noticed lately, the captain seems to be acting a bit strange&hellip;er?" "Setting sail without knowing his own heading. Something's got Jack vexed, and mark my words, what bodes ill for Jack Sparrow bodes ill for us all."

- Marty and Joshamee Gibbs

"What are you doing?" "What are you doing?" "No, what are you doing?" "What are you doing? "No, what are you doing?" "What are you doing&hellip;er, captain gives orders on the ship." "The captain of this ship is giving orders." "My ship, makes me captain!" "They be my charts." "Well, that makes you&hellip;chart man!"

- Hector Barbossa and Jack Sparrow

"The world used to be a bigger place." "The world's still the same. There's just&hellip;less in it."

- Hector Barbossa and Jack Sparrow

"Jack Sparrow. You pay me a great insult." "That doesn't sound like me."

- Sao Feng and Jack Sparrow

"You're mad." "Thank goodness for that, because if I wasn't this would probably never work."

- Cutler Beckett and Jack Sparrow

"You know, for all that pirates are clever clogs, we are an unimaginative lot when it comes to naming things. I once sailed with a geezer lost both of his arms and part of his eye." "What'd you call him?" &hellip;"Larry."

- Jack Sparrow and Joshamee Gibbs

"Oh, will you never forgive me?" "&hellip;No."

- Elizabeth Swann and Jack Sparrow

"Do you fear death?" "You've no idea."

- Davy Jones and Jack Sparrow

"Ha ha&hellip;Lookie here, boys. The lost bird. A lost bird that never learned to fly." "To my great regret. But, it's never too late to learn!"

- Davy Jones and Jack Sparrow

"I can set you free mate." "My freedom was forfeit long ago!"

- Jack Sparrow and Davy Jones

"You're a cruel man, Jack Sparrow." "Cruel is a matter of perspective."

"It would never have worked out between us." "Keep telling yourself that, darlin'."

- Elizabeth Swann and Jack Sparrow

"Mr. Gibbs, you may throw my hat if you like." "Aye captain!" "Now go and get it."

- Jack Sparrow and Joshamee Gibbs

"Mr. Gibbs, why is the ship gone?," "The ship? We're on the ship. [pause] Jack! The ship's gone!" "Really?"

- Jack Sparrow and Joshamee Gibbs

Miscellanea
