It's perhaps the most quotable movie of all time.
And one of the most fun flicks too.

"Inconceivable!"
"You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means."
Vizzini: "Stop rhyming, I mean it"
Fezzik: "Anybody want a peanut?"
Inigo Montoya: Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.
Miracle Max: "have fun stormin' the castle"
Off to a good start people...
Vizzini: Ha ha! You fool! You fell victim to one of the classic blunders! The most famous is never get involved in a land war in Asia, but only slightly less well-known is this: never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line!
My favorite XD
"There's a passage I got memorized. Ezekiel 25:17. The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness. For he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you. I been sayin' that shit for years. And if you ever heard it, it meant your ass. I never really questioned what it meant. I thought it was just a cold-blooded thing to say to a motherfucker before you popped a cap in his ass. But I saw some shit this mornin' made me think twice. Now I'm thinkin': it could mean you're the evil man. And I'm the righteous man. And Mr. 9mm here, he's the shepherd protecting my righteous ass in the valley of darkness. Or it could be you're the righteous man and I'm the shepherd and it's the world that's evil and selfish. I'd like that. But that shit ain't the truth. The truth is you're the weak. And I'm the tyranny of evil men. But I'm tryin', Ringo. I'm tryin' real hard to be a shepherd."
Wait, dammit, I may have the wrong film...
He distinctly said, "To blaaaaathe."
Humperdink !!!!!!
Westley: I do not envy the headache you will have you awake. But for now, rest well, and dream of large women.
"Good night, Westley. Good work. Sleep well. I'll most likely kill you in the morning. "
When I found you, you were so slobbering drunk that you couldn't even buy brandy! And you! Friendless! Brainless! Helpless ... Hopeless! Do you want me to send you back to where you were? Unemployed ... in Greenland?!?!?!
Whoo-hoo-hoo, look who knows so much. It just so happens that your friend here is only MOSTLY dead. There's a big difference between mostly dead and all dead. Mostly dead is slightly alive.
Westley: Why can't I move? Why am I up against this wall?
Fezzik: You've been mostly-dead all day.
They were both poisoned. I spent the last few years building up an immunity to iocane powder.
Westley: It won't be the last. To the pain means the first thing you will lose will be your feet below the ankles. Then your hands at the wrists. Next your nose.
Prince Humperdinck: And then my tongue I suppose, I killed you too quickly the last time. A mistake I don't mean to duplicate tonight.
Westley: I wasn't finished. The next thing you will lose will be your left eye followed by your right.
Prince Humperdinck: And then my ears, I understand let's get on with it.
Westley: WRONG. Your ears you keep and I'll tell you why. So that every shriek of every child at seeing your hideousness will be yours to cherish. Every babe that weeps at your approach, every woman who cries out, "Dear God! What is that thing," will echo in your perfect ears. That is what to the pain means. It means I leave you in anguish, wallowing in freakish misery forever.
being 6'5" and larger than the average bear.. I've been partial to two lines
"EVERY BODY MOOOOOOOVE!"
and
"I'm on the Brute Squad" - "You ARE the Brute Squad"
Westley "As you wish"
Your true love lives. And you marry another. True Love saved her in the Fire Swamp, and she treated it like garbage. And that's what she is, the Queen of Refuse. So bow down to her if you want, bow to her. Bow to the Queen of Slime, the Queen of Filth, the Queen of Putrescence. Boo. Boo. Rubbish. Filth. Slime. Muck. Boo. Boo. Boo.
Zip, Danielle, Ack - Way to dig into the more obscure.
SO - That's my personal favorite quote.
I'va always resolved in the offchance I have to torture someone, it will be to the pain. lol
What Vicky said.
Such a kind sentiment between foes. I love it.
And just prior to that:
Fezzik: I just want you to feel you're doing well. I hate for people to die embarrassed
(Humperdink is inspecting something and then takes a few sniffs at it)
Humperdinck: Iocaine! I'd bet my life on it. And there are the princess's footprints. She is alive, or was an hour ago...if she is otherwise, I shall be very put out!
If you don't get why this is funny, think about what the properties of Iocaine are.
Dear Baierman,
Inigo Montoya: You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
Pronounced: Hue kip hue'sing dat' hoard. I do naut think he mis wa' hue tink him is. . .
-What about the ROUSs'?
-Rodents of Unusual Size? I don't believe they exist.
hiss!
thud.
There's a shortage of perfect breasts in the world; it would be a pity to damage yours. - Westley
"I'm not a witch, I'm your WIFE!!!"
Any fred savage quotes?
Inigo: "I could give you my word as a Spaniard...."
Wesley: "No good. I've known too many Spaniards."
Give us the gate key.
I Have no gate key!
Fezzik, tear his arms off.
Oh you mean THIS gate key!
Pompous Cleric: Mawwiage! Mawwiage is what bwings us togevah today.
Mawage. Mawage is wot bwings us togeder tooday. Mawage, that bwessed awangment, that dweam wifin a dweam...
Here you go Baierman...
"Is this a kissing book?"
Westley: "We are men of action, lies do not become us."
Can you move?
Move? You're alive! If you want, I could fly
a few Fred ones
Grandpa: Westley didn't reach his destination. His ship was attacked by the Dread Pirate Roberts, who never left captives alive. When Buttercup got the news that Westley was murdered...
The Grandson: -Murdered by pirates is good...
Grandpa: She doesn't get eaten by the eels at this time
The Grandson: What?
Grandpa: The eel doesn't get her. I'm explaining to you because you look nervous.
The Grandson: I wasn't nervous. Maybe I was a little bit "concerned" but that's not the same thing.
Grandpa: Now I think you ought to go to sleep.
The Grandson: Okay.
Grandpa: Okay. Okay. Okay. All right. So long.
The Grandson: Grandpa? Maybe you could come over and read it again to me tomorrow.
Grandpa: As you wish...
Great quotes, my wife and I watched this tonight on DVD, one of out favorites we hadn't seen in awhile. Thanks for reminding me how great this was.
No prob Friggan. Glad to be useful.
What was your favorite quote?
The first 2 comments, combined, are my favorite I think.
Westley [whispering into Fezzik's ear]: i don't envy the headache you will have when you awake. In the mean time, rest well, dream of LARGE women.
The whole Max and Valarie scene was terrific, Val running after him yelling "Humperdink" always makes us laugh.
Tumbles down the hill screaming: "As you wiiishhhhh......................................"
Inigo Montoya: True love! You heard him! You could not ask for a more noble cause than that.
Miracle Max: Sonny, true love is the greatest thing in the world. Except for a nice MLT: a mutton, lettuce and tomato sandwich, where the mutton is nice and lean and the tomato is ripe. They're so perky, I love that.
"EVERYBODY MOVE!!"
Fezzik. He rules.
Wesley: [Cautiously] "You mean, you'll put down your rock and I'll put down my sword and we'll try to kill each other like civilized people?"
Get your quotes in soon. It's almost decision time.
My ultimate favorite:
Inigo: Look, he bested you with strength, your greatness. He bested me with steel. He must have out-thought Vizzini, and a man who can do that can plan my castle's onslaught any day. Let's go.
A very close second:
Inigo: He's right on top of us. I wonder if he is using the same wind we are using.
Miracle Max: Have fun stormin' da castle.
Valerie: Think it'll work?
Miracle Max: It would take a miracle.
On a related note, get your own Dread Pirate Roberts action figure!

looks awesome!!
"Good night Westley, sleep well. I'll most likely kill you in the morning"
Prince Humperdinck: Tyrone, you know how much I love watching you work, but I've got my country's 500th anniversary to plan, my wedding to arrange, my wife to murder and Guilder to frame for it; I'm swamped.
Count Rugen: Get some rest. If you haven't got your health, then you haven't got anything.
Humperdinck: That may be the first time in my life a man has dared insult me.
Westley: It won't be the last. "To the pain" means the first thing you lose will be your feet, below the ankles, then your hands at the wrists. Next, your nose.
Humperdinck: And then my tongue, I suppose. I killed you too quickly the last time, a mistake I don't mean to duplicate tonight.
Westley: I wasn't finished! The next thing you lose will be your left eye, followed by your right —
Humperdinck: And then my ears. I understand! Let's get on with it —
Westley: WRONG! Your ears you keep, and I'll tell you why. So that every shriek of every child at seeing your hideousness will be yours to cherish. Every babe that weeps at your approach, every woman who cries out, "Dear God, what is that thing?" will echo in your perfect ears. That is what "to the pain" means. It means I leave you in anguish, wallowing in freakish misery forever.
Inigo: "Allow me to e'splain. No. There is no time. Allow me to sum up."
