29. That is my favorite line also
I have wanted a personalized license plate with that on it for years - so far haven't got that.

Also would be a great name on a boat!

17. Full version.
Inigo Montoya: That Vizzini, he can *fuss*.
Fezzik: Fuss, fuss... I think he like to scream at *us*.
Inigo Montoya: Probably he means no *harm*.
Fezzik: He's really very short on *charm*.
Inigo Montoya: You have a great gift for rhyme.
Fezzik: Yes, yes, some of the time.
Vizzini: Enough of that!
Inigo Montoya: Fezzik, are there rocks ahead?
Fezzik: If there are, we all be dead!
Vizzini: No more rhymes now, I mean it!
Fezzik: Anybody want a peanut?
Vizzini: DYEEAAHHHHHH!!

9. "The first rule of common sense: Don't get into a land war in Asia."
Or something like that. I saw the film when it first came out, so my memory could be fuzzy.

18. You've committed one of the classic blunders!
The most famous of which is never get involved in a land war in Asia.
But only slightly less famous is this:
Never go against a Sicilian when Death is on the line! Muahahaha...thud.


Personally, I like how the man in black refuses to identify himself.

Inigo: Who are you?
MiB: No one of any importance.
Inigo: I must know.
MiB: Get used to being disappointed.

Buttercup: Who are you?
MiB: Someone who should not be trifled with. That is all you need know.

27. I love that movie but Princess Buttercup sux
She's so whiny and wimpy and needs her big strong man to take care of her. IMHO Wesley shoulda hooked up with Inigo Montoya (sp?)...that would have been MUCH hotter!

Since Wesley planned to make Inigo the next Dread Pirate Roberts, I'm sure they took a voyage together....

33. Now, a clever man would put the poison into his own goblet,
...because he would know that only a great fool would reach for what he was given. I am not a great fool, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of you. But you must have known I was not a great fool, you would have counted on it, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of me.

40. I swear on the soul of my father, Domingo Montoya,
you will reach the top alive.'
'throw me the rope'

"I do not think you will trust me, since I am only waiting here to kill you"
"That does put a damper on our relationship."

"My way is not very sportsmanlike"

"So you put down your rock and I put down my sword and we try to kill each other like civilized human beings?"

... when DEATH is on the line!"

"Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die."

"Offer me everything I ask for."
"Anything you want."
"I want my father back, you son of a bitch!"

"Actually, the trees are quite lovely here."

"Is this a kissing book?"

"You rush a miracle man, you get rotten miracles."

"No more rhymes now, I mean it."
"Anybody want a peanut?"

"INCONCEIVABLE!"
"You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means."

"There's a shortage of perfect breasts in this world. It would be a pity to damage yours."

Can you tell this is one of my all-time FAVORITE movies?!?

50. My favorite line didn't make it into the movie.
It's in the book. It's when they've found each other and the horses at the end, and are preparing to go. The guards try to stop them, saying that the King has forbidden anyone to leave. Buttercup slowly rises in her stirrups, saying "And I... I... I AM THE QUEEN!"

The guards let them pass.
