This reminds of another quote I picked up in rehab. “The same water that softens the potato gardens the egg.” Just a few words on circumstances and being made of different stuff, it’s one of my favorites

A sharp axe could definitely cut hair, I've seen it. I bet you can cut a tree with a razor blade too, although it would take a lot of time.

Sorry for the confusion, I didn’t read ur previous reply I just sort of added onto my comment. But yeah, i mean in the short-term having that arrogance does help push you forwards. And you do it with that intent of wanting to be someone better as well, which I can see from your post, and with my experience as well, that that way of thinking has got something to do with self improvement haha.

Not sure that would be considered a "tree" at that point. More like a sapling.

And even then, I guess it would depend on just how fast it was fired. A razor blade has little mass, so it would need to be going at a decent velocity to gain enough force to cut through even a 2 inch sapling.
