    15 Captain Jack Sparrow Quotes

    Pirates of the Caribbean

    Captain Jack Sparrow is the rum-loving, fast-talking pirate played by Johnny Depp in the Pirates of the Caribbean films, starting with The Curse of the Black Pearl in 2003. He wins most fights with his mouth, not his sword, and always seems to be making a plan up as he goes. Below are his real quotes, each with the exact film and scene it comes from.

    “Why is the rum gone?”
    The Curse of the Black Pearl (2003); stranded on the island after Elizabeth burns the rum to make a signal fire

    Captain Jack Sparrow quotes: FAQ

    What is Captain Jack Sparrow's most famous quote?
    "But you have heard of me." He says it in The Curse of the Black Pearl (2003) after a soldier calls him the worst pirate they have ever heard of. It sums up his whole character: he turns an insult into fame.
    Which film is the "Why is the rum gone?" quote from?
    The Curse of the Black Pearl (2003). Jack says it after Elizabeth burns the whole stash of rum to make a signal fire while they are stranded on an island.
    Did Jack Sparrow say "The problem is not the problem. The problem is your attitude about the problem"?
    No. That line is all over the internet as a Jack Sparrow quote, but it is not in any of the Pirates of the Caribbean films. It is a misattribution, so we left it off this list of real quotes.
    How many Pirates of the Caribbean films is Jack Sparrow in?
    Johnny Depp plays him in five films: The Curse of the Black Pearl (2003), Dead Man's Chest (2006), At World's End (2007), On Stranger Tides (2011), and Dead Men Tell No Tales (2017). The quotes here come from the first four.
