The Black Cauldron
Movie Quote Quiz

The Horned King: I presume, my boy, you are the keeper of this oracular pig.

Taran: I'm not afraid of the Horned King.
Dallben: Then you are a very foolish lad. Untried courage is no match for his evil. Just remember that.

The Horned King: Oh, my soldiers... Soon the Black Cauldron will be mine. Its evil power will course through my veins, and I shall make you Cauldron Born... Yes, yes, oh yes! Then you will worship ME! Me... Oh, my soldiers... How long I have thirsted to be a god among mortal men.

Taran: What does a girl know about swords, anyway?
Eilonwy: "Girl"?"Girl"? If it wasn't for this girl, you would still be in the Horned King's dungeon.

The Horned King: My, what a brave, handsome group. A pig keeper, a scullery maid, and a broken-down minstrel. Perhaps it would interest you to see what fate has in store for you.

Taran: For your sake, you'd better be telling the truth.
Gurgi: Gurgi not lie. Not this time.

Creeper: Oh, I'm sorry. I've ignored you. You did come for the Black Cauldron, didn't you? Good. Then climb in! It will only cost you your life.

Eilonwy: Aren't you charming?
Gurgi: And pungent, too.

Orddu: It's decided, then. You shall have the Black Cauldron.
Eilonwy: You mean, you'll give it to us?
Orddu: That's not what I said. You weren't listening. We never give anything away. What we do is bargain, trade.
Taran: Well, you'll not have my sword.

Gurgi: If great lord go into evil castle, poor Gurgi will never see his friend again. Nope. Never.

Eilonwy: Oh, Taran, I'm afraid it'll soon be over for us.
Taran: I hadn't planned it to end like this, Eilonwy.
Fflewddur Fflam: Oh, I wish I'd stayed a toad.

Continuity mistake: Taran picks up the special sword in the dead king's tomb. In a fight with one of the Horned King's henchmen, he leaves the sword's holster in the castle, only to have it reappear in the scene where Taran cleans the sword.
