“On the clearest of nights, when the winds of the Etherium were calm and peaceful, the great merchant ships, with their cargos of Arcturian solar crystals, felt safe and secure. Little did they suspect that they were persued by... pirates. And the most feared of all these pirates was the notorious Captain Nathaniel Flint.”
Tony Jay - Narrator

“- The Great Gonzo: I thought pirates had talking parrots as pets.
- Long John Silver: Talking... parrots?
- Bad Polly: What an imagination. First pirates, now talking parrots, what's next - a singing, dancing mouse with his own amusement park?”
Dave Goelz - The Great Gonzo
Tim Curry - Long John Silver
Kevin Clash - Bad Polly

“The only rules that really matter are these: what a man can do and what a man can't do. For instance, you can accept that your father was a pirate and a good man or you can't. But pirate is in your blood, boy, so you'll have to square with that some day.”
Johnny Depp - Jack Sparrow

- Elizabeth Swann: According to the Code of the Order of the Brethren...
- Barbossa: First, your return to shore was not part of our negotiations nor our agreement so I must do nothing. And secondly, you must be a pirate for the pirate's code to apply and you're not. And thirdly, the code is more what you'd call "guidelines" than actual rules.
Keira Knightley - Elizabeth Swann
Geoffrey Rush - Barbossa

“- Young Elizabeth: I think it'd be rather exciting to meet a pirate.
- Norrington: Think again, Miss Swann. Vile and dissolute creatures, the lot of them. I intend to see that any man who sails under a pirate flag or wears a pirate brand gets what he deserves: a short drop and a sudden stop.”
Lucinda Dryzek - Young Elizabeth
Jack Davenport - Norrington
