pirates of the caribbean: at world’s end

Some more quotes from Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End: " I prefer rum... Rum's good." "Well, then you wouldn't be here, would you? So you can't be here! Q.E.D. - you're not really here!" "Send this pestilent, traitorous, cow-hearted, yeasty codpiece to the brig." "Love, that is a dinghy. My vessel is magnificent and fierce and huge-ish. And gone. Why is it gone?" " I have no sympathy for any of you feculent maggots and no more patience to pretend otherwise. Gentlemen, I wash my hand of this weirdness." "And all of this pales to utter insignificance in light of the fact that my ship is once again gone. Savvy?" "Now we're being followed by rocks. Never had that one before." "Have you, now? It's very kind of you. But it would seem that as I possess a ship, and you don't... you're the ones in need of rescuing, and I'm not sure that I'm in the mood." ...

pirates of the caribbean: dead man’s chest

Upon returning almost empty-handed from a mission, Jack faces an eager, awaiting crew. They ask him about the mission of which he apparently has no idea whatsoever - only that he understands he forgot about it altogether. Thus, to evade the crew's questions (about a certain key and a chest); he devises an elaborate wordplay that reads: "No. If we don't have the key, we can't open whatever we don't have that it unlocks. So what purpose would be served in finding whatever need be unlocked, which we don't have, without first having found the key what unlocks it?" Some more memorable quotes from Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest: "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?" "You mistrust me? Listen, you can mistrust him, trust me." "Let us examine t...

pirates of the caribbean: the curse of the black pearl

"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... stupid.' What fierce pirate Hector Barbossa will make of these lines by Jack Sparrow, is anybody's guess; but witty Jack never ceases to vex his competitors at the opportune moment. Here's a compilation of some memorable quotes from Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl. "She's safe, just like I promised. She's all set to marry Norrington, just like she promised. And you get to die for her, just like you promised. So we're all men of our word really... except for, of course, Elizabeth, who is in fact, a woman." "When you marooned me on that god forsaken spit of land, you forgot one very important thing, mate: I'm Captain Jack Sparrow." "Fortunately, I know how to counter it; the man wh...

growing a square watermelon

Next time you visit the store, make sure that you look for cubic watermelons. Yes, you heard me right – cubic watermelons! It is often said that necessity is the mother of invention; and for Tokyoites always clamouring for space, this new shape has provided them relief. The cubic shape gives them what they crave for, at least within their refrigerators. According to the farmers who grow them, cubic watermelons were created because they are easy to stock, easy to cut and easy to package. The idea of a cubic shape, as opposed to its natural shape occurred to one farmer in Zentsuji in 2001. Since then, farmers in the quiet town in southern Japan have been famous around the world. Without doubt, Zentsuji has been registered as the birthplace of cubic watermelons. The concept is simple – as the fruit is growing in the vine, put it inside a cube-shaped glass casing, and Mother Nature takes care of the rest. Not as difficult as it sounds, is it? Cubic they might be, but they come with a pr...
