It's probably used a lot...but the final monologue in Glass Menagerie is a good one. Also, Vince's monologue from Sam Shepard's "Buried Child" is great. If you want funny, you could look at "The Nerd" by Larry Shue...Axel's monologue in Act Two. Or the last monologue of the show from Neil Simon's "Rumors" is good but it's used SO much. I guess it just depends what you need it for.

I also think the 2 Byck monolouges from Assassins are very good as well.

I don't know how long a monologue you're looking for, or what age you are, but Graham's monologue, A Chip in the Sugar, from Talking Heads is amazing.
