The Princess Bride quotes
Page 3 of 8I just work for Vizzini to pay the bills. There's not a lot of money in revenge.
There will be blood tonight!
[on hearing Wesley's cries of pain]
Fezzik! Listen. Do you hear? That is the sound of ultimate suffering. My heart made that sound when Rugen slaughtered my father. The Man in Black makes it now.
Let me explain... No, there is too much. Let me sum up. Buttercup is marrying Humperdinck in a little less than half an hour, so all we have to do is get in, break up the wedding, steal the Princess, and make our escape after I kill Count Rugen.
I only dog paddle.
You just wiggled your finger. That's wonderful!
It's not my fault being the biggest and the strongest. I don't even exercise.
[reacting to being told that "his way" involves hitting Westley with a rock]
My way's not very sportsmanlike.
Do you know what that sound is, Highness? Those are the Shrieking Eels — if you don't believe me, just wait. They always grow louder when they're about to feed on human flesh. If you swim back now, I promise, no harm will come to you. I doubt you will get such an offer from the Eels.
Pick up a rock, hide behind the boulder and wait for the man in black. The minute his head is in view, HIT IT WITH THE ROCK!
[to Westley]
There's nothing to explain. You're trying to kidnap what I've rightfully stolen.
[to Fezzik]
And YOU! Friendless. Brainless. Helpless. Hopeless! Do you want me to send you back to where you were? Unemployed? In Greenland?!
I can't compete with you physically, and you're no match for my brains.
