i agree with the first answer, i would just suggest you take a good look at the book "Siddartha", lots of good monologues.

hey your own self.. what kind of school? What kind of play? What kind of character? How long? Classical or contemporary? Drama or comedy? long or short? Difficult or easy?

My suggestion is for you to survey the books that you've read to date. Find a character in one of those books and then, from the text, develop a monologue that you can really relate to? Salinger? Harper Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird? Dick and Jane?

When you have a handle on what sort of a character you'd like to play, then you're on your way. An easy way out and boring, too, is to find a book of monologues, probably in your library or from Samuel French http://samuelfrench.com/store/index.php

Pick a book, pick a character and there you go.

Or.. find the thread of an idea that leads you to a character whom you can relate to.. either write your own monologue or find a speech in a story or play where this character lives and devour it.

do well.
