“What's done can't be undone.”
— William Shakespeare
Simplified Meaning:
Once something has happened, you can't change it. Think of it like spilling a glass of milk. Once the milk is on the floor, you can't put it back in the glass. You can clean up the mess, but the spill has already happened. Another example is saying something hurtful to a friend. You might apologize and they might forgive you, but the words were said and they can’t be taken back. This saying reminds us to be careful with our actions and words because once they happen, they are permanent. It encourages us to think before we act, as some things cannot be fixed once they are done.
