Murtogg Quotes in Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (2003)

Mullroy: What's your purpose in Port Royal, Mr. Smith?

Murtogg: Yeah, and no lies.

Jack Sparrow: Well, then, I confess, it is my intention to commandeer one of these ships, pick up a crew in Tortuga, raid, pillage, plunder and otherwise pilfer my weasely black guts out.

Murtogg: I said no lies.

Mullroy: I think he's telling the truth.

Murtogg: If he were telling the truth, he wouldn't have told us.

Jack Sparrow: Unless, of course, he knew you wouldn't believe the truth even if he told it to you.

Murtogg: This dock is off-limits to civilians.

Jack Sparrow: I'm terribly sorry, I didn't know. If I see one, I shall inform you immediately.

[Jack makes to continue but is blocked by Murtogg and Mullroy]

Jack Sparrow: Apparently there's some sort of high-toned and fancy to-do up at the fort, eh? How could it be that two upstanding gentlemen, such as yourselves, did not merit an invitation?

Murtogg: Someone's got to make sure that this dock stays off-limits to civilians.

Jack Sparrow: It's a fine goal, to be sure. But it seems to me... that a ship like that one, makes this one here seem a bit superfluous, really.

Murtogg: Oh, the Dauntless is the power in these waters, true enough. But there's no ship as can match the Interceptor for speed.

Jack Sparrow: I've heard of one, supposed to be very fast, nigh uncatchable: The Black Pearl.

Mullroy: Well, there's no real ship as can match the Interceptor.

Murtogg: The Black Pearl is a real ship.

Mullroy: No, it's not.

Murtogg: Yes it is, I've seen it.

Mullroy: You've seen it?

Murtogg: Yes.

Mullroy: You haven't seen it.

Murtogg: Yes, I have.

Mullroy: You've seen a ship with black sails that's crewed by the damned, and captained by a man so evil that Hell itself spat him back out?

Murtogg: No.

Mullroy: No.

Murtogg: But I have seen a ship with black sails.

[Jack quietly slips passed them unnoticed]

Mullroy: Oh, and no ship that's not crewed by the damned and captained by a man so evil that Hell itself spat him back out could possibly have black sails, therefore couldn't possibly be any other ship than the Black Pearl. Is that what you're telling me?

Murtogg: [nods] No.

Mullroy: Like I said, there's no real ship as can match the Interceptor.

Murtogg: What we doin' 'ere?

Mullroy: The pirates come out, unprepared and unawares. We catch 'em in a crossfire... send 'em down to see Old Hob.

Murtogg: I know *why* we're here. I mean, why aren't we doin' what - what Mr. Sparrow said? With the cannons and all?

Norrington: Because it was Mr. Sparrow who said it.

Murtogg: [short pause; he turns to Mullroy] You don't think 'e was tellin' the truth?

Mullroy: [as Jack is taking his effects] There has definitely been a breakdown in discipline aboard this vessel.

Murtogg: I blame the fish-people.

Mullroy: [Sarcastically] Ohh, so fish-people, by dint of being fish-people are less disciplined than non-fish-people?

Murtogg: [as Jack is taking the chest] It seems contributory.

Murtogg: Of course, if there were no fish-people, then there would be no need to guard the chest.

Mullroy: And if there were no chest, then we wouldn't need to be here to guard it.

[both realise that the chest is gone and the apparent danger they're in]
