The power of the speech is unbridled. Many famous figureheads have given life altering speeches, such as FDR’s Infamy speech, Mandela’s “I am prepared to die” speech, and Queen Elizabeth the First’s “Golden Speech”. All of these speeches have something in common, they changed the tide of human development, and with something as benign and simple as human words we are able to make a huge impact. And with these speeches in the back of my mind, I feel a sort of pressure to make this speech as great as possible. With that out of the way, I would like to discuss the time I trapped myself in my room for an hour trying to change out a doorknob.
