"Life is pain, Highness. Anyone who says differently is selling something." is preserved here as a credited line from Westley in The Princess Bride (1987), not as an anonymous standalone saying. The combination of adventure and comedy storytelling and Cary Elwes's performance is part of what gives the line its staying power, which is why this detail page keeps the movie, character, and actor together in the same context.

This quote is grouped with Life & Philosophy and Wisdom and tags such as reality, pain, and truth so readers can move into connected lines without losing the original source.
