- "Then what shall we die for? Now You will listen to me. Listen! The Brethren will still be looking here, to us, to the Black Pearl to lead. And what will they see? Frightened bilge rats aboard a derelict ship? No. No, they will see free men! And freedom! And what the enemy will see is the flash of our cannons. They will hear the ring of our swords, and they will know what we can do! By the sweat of our brows, and the strength of our backs…and the courage of our hearts! Gentlemen! Hoist the colors."
- ―to the crew of the Black Pearl[src]

- "For too long I've been parched of thirst and unable to quench it. Too long I've been starving to death and haven't died. I feel nothing. Not the wind on my face nor the spray of the sea, nor the warmth of a woman's flesh. You best start believing in ghost stories, Miss Turner. You're in one!"
- ―Hector Barbossa to Elizabeth Swann[src]
Hector Barbossa was the Pirate Lord of the Caspian Sea. In his youth he was an honest sailor, who left to make an easier living as a pirate. One day he joined the crew of the Black Pearl, captained by Jack Sparrow. Barbossa lead a mutiny against Jack during their first voyage and marooned him on an uninhabited island and then journeyed to the Isla de Muerta to claim the lost treasure of Cortés. The crew later found out that the legends about the treasure's curse were true. In order to undo the curse, the crew set out to find the coins that they had spent away. At some point he became Pirate Lord of the Caspian Sea after the previous Lord passed his Piece of Eight to Barbossa. After ten years the curse was lifted by Will Turner, son of lost crew member "Bootstrap Bill" and Barbossa was shot dead by his old captain Jack Sparrow.
