L'esprit de l'escalier (staircase wit) is thinking of a clever comeback when it is too late. The phrase can be used to describe a riposte to an insult or any witty remark that comes to mind too late to be useful—after one has left the scene of the encounter.

It’s only one of two things. It’s either I have plenty of time, or I’m running out of time. Either way, I should just relax, take my time, and focus on the things that really matter. I don’t want to find myself at the end of the road thinking, why did I spend that much time so stressed out about things I could have just winged?
Everything’s going to be all right.
