I've been rewatching the Pirates films lately, which is, of course, a complete delight. It also reminds me that one of the reason's I love Jack Sparrow so much is that he comes out with lines involving phrases such as the following (from POTC3):

... a woman scorned, like which fury hell hath no.I'm going to set myself the challenge of working this

That's a lovely quote :)

It's one of those things that's in my head a lot, but it's extremely rare that I have the chance to say it aloud :)
