The Governor Monologues

Perhaps you think we're here to teach men to lie in a new way?

Why did you sign every accusation made against you? I didn't stop you from killing yourself to see you like this! Someone who will sign anything to please his enemies... to please me!

You knew about a lot of things in Manchukuo... even the secret agreements. But you couldn't possibly have known about the Japanese biological warfare experiments in Harbin! Could you? So why did you sign these papers?

You are responsible for what you do! All your life you thought you were better than everyone else. Now you think you're the worst of all!

Is that so terrible? To be useful?

Open the door! Open the door! Open the door!… Open the door!

Many heads have been chopped off. It does stop them thinking.

It would be conveniently sad if he becomes blind. To the expense, Your Excellency. To the cost of maintaining one thousand two hundred eunuchs, three hundred and fifty ladies-in-waiting and one hundred and eighty-five cooks to buying a hundred and twenty sable furs a month and three thousand chickens a week. To the fact that eight hundred and forty guards and employees of the household department, plus one Lord Chamberlain, care only about one thing! Filling their own rice bowls!

Your Majesty, in my country, it would be usual to begin with some kind of an examination.

We have more monologues for You!
