我正式开始好好学英语后（高考后）背诵的第一段影视英语演讲。此段演讲简短有力，引经据典，韵律性极强，用词和句型都非常漂亮。极佳的背诵和语音模仿材料。

From Prison Break season 2 episode 1,

Speech by FBI Special Agent Alexander Mahone at the press conference, after Michael and gang escaped the prison.

“I'd like to, uh, talk about John Wilkes Booth for a moment, if I could, Abraham Lincoln's killer. Twelve days. That's how long it took to find him. In his journal during this period he wrote that the shadow was his friend, the night his domain. He acknowledged that whatever neurosis drove the criminal to commit the original crime is compounded. Magnified by flight. By the sounds of dogs at his heels. Fear becomes paranoia, paranoia ultimately psychosis. I bring this up because in one hundred and forty years, the fundamental mind of the escape man has not changed. The escape man is still human, he is still afraid, and he will stop at nothing in his attempt at flight. Fortunately for us, while our quarry has shadow and night as his ally, we have something far greater. Television. I would encourage everyone who is watching. Everyone in this country, to take a good look at these faces...

These men, right here, are now the eight most wanted men in America.”
