The Spanish Main Quotes:
Capt. Laurent Van Horn: Who tells you I do?
Paree: He's such a liar, if he bids me "good morning", I figure it's night, and go to bed. Every word he says...
Capt. Laurent Van Horn: Not every word. Some are true and some are not... a kind of hash. But I won't swallow it before I find out what it's made of.
Paree: Bring him head-out on fire!
Pillery Gow: No, no, we got to do this properly. Step by step, limb from limb.
Contessa Francesca: Can't you let him live somehow? Find a way for him to do some useful work?
Don Juan Alvarado: Work? No, Contessa, yours is the cruelest of all suggestions.
Mario Du Billar: 50,000 was the sum you mentioned, your excellency.
Don Juan Alvarado: 50 was the sum I mentioned, but 10,000 was what I had in mind.
