William Shakespeare's Pulp Fiction

ACT I SCENE 2. A road, morning. Enter a carriage, with JULES and VINCENT, murderers.

J: And know'st thou what the French name cottage pie?

V: Say they not cottage pie, in their own tongue?

J: But nay, their tongues, for speech and taste alike
Are strange to ours, with their own history:
Gaul knoweth not a cottage from a house.

V: What say they then, pray?

J: Hachis Parmentier.

V: Hachis Parmentier! What name they cream?

J: Cream is but cream, only they say le crème.

V: What do they name black pudding?

J: I know not;
I visited no inn it could be bought.
