No matter how sharp it is, a knife will never cut it’s own handle.	Kikuyu proverb

No matter how sharp it is, a knife will never cut it’s own handle.

Gordon Graham

Decision is a sharp knife that cuts or to do anything, never to turn back or to stop until the thing intended was clean and straight; indecision, a dull one that hacks and tears and leaves ragged edges behind it.

The Holy Bible

Put a knife to thy throat, if you’re a man given to appetite.
