Quote by Dale Carnegie
There are always three speeches, for every one you actually gave. The one you practiced, the one you gave, and the one you wish you gave.
Summary
This quote suggests that when giving a speech, there are three versions that exist. The first is the speech that was rehearsed and meticulously prepared. The second is the actual speech delivered to the audience. Lastly, there is the idealized version, the speech that the speaker wishes they had given. It conveys the idea that no matter how well-prepared or delivered a speech is, there always lingers a sense of thinking about how it could have been better, highlighting the constant pursuit of perfection in public speaking.
