“What I Wish” – Monologue

Have you ever sailed across an ocean, Donald?

On a sailboat surrounded by sea with no land in sight, without even the possibility of sighting land for days to come?

To stand at the helm of your destiny?

I want that one more time.

I want to be in the Piazza del Campo in Siena, to feel the surge as ten racehorses go thundering by.

I want another meal in Paris at L’Ambroisie in the place des Vosges.

I want another bottle of wine and then another.

I want the warmth of a woman in the cool set of sheets.

One more night of jazz at the Vanguard.

I want to stand on summits and smoke Cubans and feel the sun on my face for as long as I can.

Walk on the Wall again.

Climb the Tower.

Ride the River.

Stare at the frescos.

I want to sit in the garden and read one more good book.

Give me that – Just one time.

James Spader perfection in The Blacklist: Anslo Garrick

“Blacklist”‘s James Spader offers us an Oscar moment in recent episode “Anslo Garrick Prt. 1”. Or how TV has finally surpassed the Big Screen.

Most of all I want to sleep – I want to sleep like I slept when I was a boy.

Give me that. Just one time.

That’s why I won’t allow that punk out there to get the best of me, let alone the last of me.”
