There's no doubt in my mind that the writers wanted a theme for Jack to be about immortality. He tells Will in the rough draft script that his reasons for wanting to stab the heart revolve around this.Also, I heard that Barbossa makes a quip about Jack's not having an heir to pass on his piece of eight to.
So if the quote revolves around immortality, I would imagine that he says there is more than one way to achieve immortality, i.e. through having a child. That way the blood line can be carried on.
Isn't the quote from Teague something like: It's not about immortality in life, but about the quality of the life?
Aye.
You forget...Jack still has those birth charms around his waist...

Bittersweet. They lose piracy but gain other things in return. And historically, piracy did eventually end.
I agree. Gore mentions this himself.
Piracy is literally at it's end. Historically talking.
DMC shows signs already. I mean, there's not enough treassure, not enough plundering etc.
The life of a pirate is fun while it lasts. But it doesn't last forever historically speaking, again.
So time is running out, its a fight between EITC and pirates, the fight is between them because one thing:
-Beckette has the heart
-Beckette wants to take control of the pirates to work for him and those who refuse to discard them.
So that's what the fight is about. They would rather be free than working for Becketter for his nasty services..
Does that make sense?
