Once the toothpaste is out of the tube, it's hard to get it

Summary

This quote is a metaphorical way of expressing the difficulty of undoing or reversing a certain action or situation once it has occurred. Just like once toothpaste has been squeezed out of its tube, it cannot be put back inside, certain actions or consequences are irreversible. It serves as a reminder to think carefully before taking actions or making choices, as the effects may be difficult or impossible to undo.
