- "I hardly believe in ghost stories anymore, Captain Barbossa."
"Aye. That's exactly what I thought when we were first told the tale." - ―Elizabeth Swann and Hector Barbossa
Pirate Lore consists of legends, music, oral history, popular beliefs, fairy tales, stories, tall tales, and customs that were told by pirates and sailors around the world. These stories offers many an adventurer a chance to learn more about the world around them while spinning tales of thrill, adventure, and danger with salty old seadogs. Many lores were made over time; some of which would be believed to be not more than legend.

- In the "Charting The Return" extra for the Dead Man's Chest DVD, director Gore Verbinski stated that every crazy idea was put on the table for the concept of expanding The Curse of the Black Pearl into a trilogy. The Fountain of Youth was one of the ideas he put in particular[2]; though it ended up in On Stranger Tides.
