Marcus: I told Miss Bliss about the puppets losing their heads. She said, " When Life gives you lemons, make lemonade." Alice: Not me! I'd throw those lemons back in Life's face and say, "Do I look like I eat fruit? Give me something artificially flavored!" PHOOEY! Marcus: My mind just went completely blank. Dill: Welcome to my world!

Or as Calvin said, “When life gives you lemons, wing ’em right back and add some lemons of your own."

“When life gives you lemons, don’t make lemonade. Make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don’t want your damn lemons, what the hell am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life’s manager! Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons! Do you know who I am? I’m the man who’s gonna burn your house down! With the lemons! I’m gonna get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!”
