My Father tell you all about me? Pope Ronnie? Charmed life? How great I am? That’s how he is with you. You should hear him with me, you’d sing a different tune pretty quick, and it wouldn’t be “Where Is the Devil in Evelyn.”

[...]

Because you know what I think of you? (gesture) I’m sorry you had to hear that–pay seven or eight dollars to hear that. But I don’t care. I’ll show you all. I’ll be too big for any of you.

For full extended monologue, please refer to clips or the script edition: John Guare, The House of Blue Leaves, Samuel French, 1968, pp. 35-37.
