The first thing you lose will be your feet below the ankles, then your hands below the wrist, next your nose and then your tounge. The next thing you lose will be your left eye followed by your right. 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 who 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.
Cary Elwes' delivery here is so good. Something about 'your left eye followed by your right' being so quick with no pause just keeps the anticipation going.
What movie is this from?
The princess bride.
Ahh, thanks! I never was exposed to it as a kid, and have only seen it once.
it's worth a rewatch
It's worth 100 rewatches
I could really go for a nice MLT
Only if the mutton is nice and lean and the tomato's ripe.
Would a rouge sneak up behind you to take out your tounge?
