griffen, a meme you CAN'T pass up:
When you see this, post in your own journal with your favorite quote from The Princess Bride. Or you can comment it here. Don't do the easy ones: "As you wish," or the Inigo Montoya speech. ("My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.")
There's also everyone's all-time internet favourite, i.e., "You keep using that word..." But I won't use that one. There's one part in particular that I have quoted for many years, even before seeing the movie. (In fact, I've only seen the movie once, as a kid - my main experience with Princess Bride is with the book. And believe me, if you haven't read it, this part is even more amazing in the book.):
Inigo Montoya: (fencing) You are wonderful.
Man in Black: Thank you; I've worked hard to become so.
Inigo: I admit it, you are better than I am.
Man in Black: Then why are you smiling?
Inigo: Because I know something you don't know.
Man in Black: And what is that?
Inigo Montoya: I...am not left-handed.
(Switches his sword to his right hand and begins to press the Man in Black backwards towards the Cliffs of Insanity.)
Man in Black: You are amazing.
Inigo: I ought to be, after 20 years.
Man in Black: Oh, there's something I ought to tell you.
Inigo: Tell me.
Man in Black: I'm not left-handed either.
(Tosses his sword into his left hand. The tide turns again.)
Inigo: Who are you?!
*grins*
