Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest quotes

View Quote [Jack shoots part of monkey's tail off.]
Gibbs: Captain, you know that don't do any good.
Jack: It does me!
Marty: [picks up the cloth] It's a key.
Jack: No, much more better. It is a drawing of a key.
[The crew stare blankly.]
Jack: Gentlemen, what do keys do?
Leech: Keys ... unlock things?
Gibbs: [catching on.] And whatever this key unlocks, inside there's something valuable ... So, we're setting out to find whatever this key unlocks?
Jack: 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 needs be unlocked... which we don't have... without having first found the key what unlocks it?
Gibbs: So, we're going after this key!
Jack: You're not making any sense at all.

View Quote Jack Sparrow: Bootstrap? Bill Turner?
Bootstrap Bill: You look good, Jack.
Jack Sparrow: Is this a dream?
Bootstrap Bill: [confused] No.
Jack Sparrow: I thought not. If it was, there'd be rum. [Bootstrap holds up a bottle of rum for him.]
Bootstrap Bill: You got the Pearl back, I see.
Jack Sparrow: I had some help retrieving the Pearl, by the way. Your son.
Bootstrap Bill: William? He ended up a pirate after all.
Jack Sparrow: And to what do I owe the pleasure of your carbuncle?

View Quote Bootstrap Bill: You made a deal with him too, Jack. He raised the Pearl from the depths for you. Thirteen years you've been captain!
Jack: Technically...
Bootstrap Bill: Jack! You won't be able to talk yourself out of this. The terms what apply to me apply to you as well. One soul... bound to crew a hundred years upon his ship!
Jack: Yes but the Flying Dutchman already has a captain so there's really no...
Bootstrap Bill: Then there's the Locker for you!! Jones' terrible leviathan will find you and drag the Pearl down to the depths and you along with it!
Jack: Any idea when Jones might release said terrible beastie?
Bootstrap Bill: I already told you, Jack... your time's up. [marks him with the Black Spot.] It comes now, drawn with ravenous hunger, to the man who bears the Black Spot.

View Quote [Marked by the Black Spot, Jack Sparrow runs around on deck, rousing the crew.]
Jack: All hands on deck! Make fast the bunt gasket! On deck! Scurry! Scurry! I want movement! Movement! I want movement! Lift the skin up! Keep your loof! Haul those sheets! Run them! Run! Keep running! Run as if the Devil himself and itself is upon us!
Gibbs: Do we have a heading?
Jack: Argh! [realises who it is.] Run! Land.
Gibbs: Which port?
Jack: I didn't say 'port'. I said 'land'. Any land.

View Quote Pintel: You know you can't read!
Ragetti: It's the Bible, you get credit for trying!
Pintel:: Pretendin' to read the Bible's a lie! That's a mark against ... [points up.]

View Quote Gibbs: Let's put some distance between us and this island and head out to open sea.
Jack: Yes to the first and yes to the second, but only insofar as we keep to the shallows as much as possible.
Gibbs: That's seems a bit contradictory, Captain.
Jack: I have every faith in your reconcilliatory navigational skills, Master Gibbs. Now where is that monkey? I want to shoot something!

View Quote Will: [about the key to the Dead Man's Chest.] You want me to find this?
Jack: No. You want you to find this. Because the finding of this finds you incapacitorially finding and/or locating in your discovering, a detecting of a way to save your dolly belle, dear ol' what's-her-face. [pause.] Savvy?
Will: [pointing at Jack's drawling of a key] This is going to save Elizabeth?
Jack: How much do you know about Davy Jones?
Will: Not much..
Jack: Yeah, it's gonna save Elizabeth.

View Quote Will: Why is Jack afraid of the open ocean?
Gibbs: Well, if you believe such things... there's a beast does the bidding of Davy Jones - a fearsome creature with giant tentacles that'll suction your face clean off, and drag an entire ship down to the crushing darkness. The Kraken. They say the stench of its breath is...[shudders] Imagine... the last thing you know on God's green Earth is the roar of the Kraken, and the reeking odor of a thousand rotting corpses... if you believe such things.
Will: And the key will spare him that?
Gibbs: Well, that's the very question Jack wants answered. Bad enough even to go visit...her.
Will: "Her?"

View Quote Jack: No worries, mates. Tia Dalma and I go way back; Thick as thieves. Nigh unseperable we are... were... have been... before...
Gibbs: [going to see Tia Dalma.] I'll watch yer back.
Jack: It's me front I'm worried about...
Gibbs: [To Will.] Mind the boat.
Will: [To Pintel.] Mind the boat.
Pintel: [To Ragetti.] Mind the boat.
Ragetti: [To Marty.] Mind the boat.
Marty: [To Mr. Cotton and his parrot.] Mind the boat.
Cotton's Parrot: *Squawk* Mind the boat.
[Flies into Tia Dalma's shack, leaving Mr. Cotton to mind the boat.]

View Quote Tia Dalma: You... You have a touch of destiny about you, William Turner!
Will: You know me?
Tia Dalma: You want to know me..
Jack: [cutting in.] There will be no knowing here! We've come for help and we're not leaving without it. [to Tia Dalma.] I thought I knew you.
Tia Dalma: Not so well as I had hoped.

View Quote Tia Dalma: You know I demand payment.
Jack: I brought payment. Look. [shoots Jack the monkey, which cannot die.] An undead monkey! Top that!

View Quote Tia Dalma: You know of Davy Jones, yes? A man of the sea. A great sailor. Until he ran afoul of that which vexes all men.
Will: What vexes all men?
Tia Dalma: What, indeed?
Gibbs: The sea?
Pintel: Sums?
Ragetti: The dichotomy of good and evil?
[Everyone stares at Ragetti.]
Jack: A woman.
Tia Dalma: See, it was a woman. He fell in love...
Gibbs: No, no, no, I heard it was the sea he fell in love with.
Tia Dalma: [cutting off all argument.] Same story, different versions. And all are true. You see, it was a woman. As harsh, changing and untamable like the sea. Him never stopped loving her...

View Quote [After Tia Dalma finishes the story of Davy Jones.]
Will: You knew this!
Jack: I did not. I didn't know where the key was. But now we do. And now all that's left is to climb aboard the Flying Dutchman, grab the key, you go back to Port Royal and save your bonny lass, eh!

View Quote Tia Dalma: Davy Jones cannot make port. Cannot step foot on land but once every ten years. Land is where you are safe, Jack Sparrow. [handing Jack a jar of dirt] Therefore you must take land with you.
[Jack takes the jar from Tia Dalma.]
Jack: [deadpan] Dirt. This is a jar of dirt.
Tia Dalma: Yes.
Jack: Is the jar of dirt going to help?
Tia Dalma: If you no want it, give it back.
Jack: [pulling the jar closer.] No.
Tia Dalma: [smiling] Then it helps.

View Quote Davy Jones: [To shivering sailor while lighting pipe] Do you fear death? Do you fear that dark abyss? All your deeds laid bare, all your sins punished? [Shivering sailor nods.] I can offer you an escape.
Other Dying Sailor: Don't listen to him. [Holding a small cross in his hands]
Davy Jones: [examines Other Dying Sailor, puffing on pipe] Do you not...fear death?
Dying Sailor: I'll take my chances, sir.
Davy Jones: To the depths!
[Jones' crewman slits the sailor's throat and dumps him overboard.]
Another Dying Sailor: Cruel blackguard!
Davy Jones: Life is cruel! Why should the afterlife be any different? I offer you a choice. Join my crew and postpone that final judgement. One hundred years before the mast. Will ye serve?
First Sailor: I-I will serve.
Davy Jones: [guttural] There! [notices Will for the first time.] You are neither dead nor dying. What is your purpose here?
Will: [mutters.] Jack Sparrow sent me to settle his debt.
Davy Jones: [leans forward, surprised] What is your purpose here?
Will: Jack Sparrow..? Sent me to settle his debt?
Davy Jones: [chuckling] Did he, now? I'm sorely tempted to accept that offer!
