This should be in every mans movie collection..... or not.
Why? |

Prince Humperdinck: First things first, to the death.
Westley: No. To the pain. Prince Humperdinck: I don't think I'm quite familiar with that phrase. Westley: I'll explain and I'll use small words so that you'll be sure to understand, you warthog faced buffoon. Prince Humperdinck: That may be the first time in my life a man has dared insult me. Westley: It won't be the last. To the pain means the first thing you will lose will be your feet below the ankles. Then your hands at the wrists. Next your nose. Prince Humperdinck: And then my tongue I suppose, I killed you too quickly the last time. A mistake I don't mean to duplicate tonight. Westley: I wasn't finished. The next thing you will lose will be your left eye followed by your right. Prince Humperdinck: And then my ears, I understand let's get on with it. Westley: WRONG. Your ears you keep and I'll tell you why. So that every shriek of every child at seeing your hideousness will be yours to cherish. Every babe that weeps at your approach, every woman who cries out, "Dear God! What is that thing," will echo in your perfect ears. That is what to the pain means. It means I leave you in anguish, wallowing in freakish misery forever. Prince Humperdinck: I think you're bluffing. Westley: It's possible, Pig, I might be bluffing. It's conceivable, you miserable, vomitous mass, that I'm only lying here because I lack the strength to stand. But, then again... perhaps I have the strength after all. |

Quoted:
This should be in every mans movie collection..... or not. Why? Yes, the book also. Much darker, but a good read. Why? Because I can have really entertaining conversations with friends when one of us drops a reference. Story Book Love by Willy Deville is also a great love song. |

Quoted:
"Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die." + Andrea the Giant was a good hearted giant in the movie and real life, I met him when I was 13 It takes a brave man to call him "Andrea". brute squad will get him. one of my favorite movies ever |

That gets me the weirdest looks since I can't stop myself from throwing it out there when somebody ends a line with "It's possible...." |
