Quotations

You can mistrust me less than you can mistrust him. Trust me.

Have you not met Will Turner? He's noble, heroic, terrific soprano, worth at least four, maybe three and a half. And did I happen to mention he's in love? With a girl. Due to be married. Betrothed. Dividing him from her and her from him would only be half as cruel as actually allowing them to be joined in holy matrimony, eh?
