And now for something completely different.

Amigos

 * Good friends will help you move. A best friend will help you move the body.
 * A good friend will bail you out of jail and lecture you about how you screwed up. A best friend will be sitting right next to you laughing about it saying "We really screwed up!"
 * The difficulty is not so great to die for a friend, as to find a friend worth dying for.
 * --Homer


 * The antidote for fifty enemies is one friend.
 * -- Aristotle


 * A true friend stabs you in the front.
 * -- Oscar Wilde


 * Your friend is that man who knows all about you, and still likes you.
 * --Elbert Hubbard


 * Laughter is not at all a bad beginning for a friendship, and it is far the best ending for one.
 * -- Oscar Wilde


 * A friend is someone who is there for you when he'd rather be anywhere else.
 * --Len Wein


 * I think that in this life you're either an idiot, a madman or a genius. I don't know which kind of people are better, because I have friends of each one.

Anatomy

 * General: Right. Do you have this man's legs?
 * Tiger-suited guy 1: What, a wooden leg?
 * General: No, a real live flesh leg! This man was perfectly fine while he slept, when someone or something, came and stole his leg.
 * Tiger-suited guy 1: Without waking him up?
 * General: (pause) (awkwardly) Yes.
 * Tiger-suited guy 1: I don't believe you.

Atheism
If I were to suggest that between the Earth and Mars there is a china teapot revolving about the sun in an elliptical orbit, nobody would be able to disprove my assertion provided I were careful to add that the teapot is too small to be revealed even by our most powerful telescopes. But if I were to go on to say that, since my assertion cannot be disproved, it is an intolerable presumption on the part of human reason to doubt it, I should rightly be thought to be talking nonsense. If, however, the existence of such a teapot were affirmed in ancient books, taught as the sacred truth every Sunday, and instilled into the minds of children at school, hesitation to believe in its existence would become a mark of eccentricity and entitle the doubter to the attentions of the psychiatrist in an enlightened age or of the Inquisitor in an earlier time.
 * --(Russel's teapot)

God only exists if he is believed in. As long as people believe in him, he will exist. such as any god, in fact. He will only stop existing when no one at all believes in him, and even if he doesn't stop existing, no one will care anyway.

"I refuse to prove that I exist" says God, "for proof denies faith, and without faith, I am nothing." "Oh," says Man, "but the Babel Fish is a dead give-away, isn't it? It proves you exist, and so therefore you don't." "Oh, I hadn't thought of that." says God, who promptly vanishes in a puff of logic. "Oh, that was easy" says Man, and for an encore he goes on to prove that black is white and gets killed on the next zebra crossing.
 * -- Douglas Adams

I slept with faith and found a corpse in my arms on awakening; I drank and danced all night with doubt and found her a virgin in the morning.
 * --Aleister Crowley

Isn't it enough to see that a garden is beautiful without having to believe that there are fairies at the bottom of it too?
 * -- Douglas Adams

Bars
Bartender: Do we serve water here?


 * Morgan: Ok, little chaps. I say "sake", you say "good", eh?
 * Goblins: SAKE!
 * Morgan: No, I say "sake". You say --
 * Goblins: SAKE!
 * Morgan: No. You say "good". "Good"! ... C'mon, "good"...
 * Goblins: SAKE!
 * Morgan: Ok, good sake. Whatever. Drink up me hearties, yo-ho. (drinks)
 * Goblins: SAKE!
 * Morgan: Oh, shut it.

Lando Calrissian: Barkeep! My friend and I would each like a glass of whatever that fellow who's passed out has been drinking.

Beauty
There are no ugly women, we just haven't drank enough yet.
 * Rouxinol Faduncho


 * (Baldrick is in a drag dress with very large fake breasts)
 * Blackadder: Baldrick, why are you dressed like that?
 * Baldrick: You want the long answer or the short answer?
 * Blackadder: Oh, the short answer, please.
 * Baldrick: Whim.
 * Blackadder: (pause) Whim. (pause) The short answer is 'whim'.
 * Baldrick: Yes.
 * Blackadder: Just out of curiosity, what was the long answer?
 * Baldrick: It was 'a whim'.

A great portrait is always more a portrait of the painter than of the painted.
 * Samuel Butler

If I were a better artist, I'd be a painter, and if I were a better writer, I'd write books - but I'm not, so I draw cartoons!
 * Charles Schultz

In these wonders and marvels, I want you to find joy, for in joy is your strength, and in your strength is their protection.
 * Carpe Chaos

A man who uses his hands is a laborer. One who uses his hands and mind is a craftsman. He who uses his hands, and his mind, and his heart is an artist.

There are, and there has always been, two kinds of beautiful: those who wish to be so and those who are at peace.

Books
(Harry Potter writing on Tom Riddle's Diary)
 * Harry: My name is Ron Weasley.

 * Harry: Haha I was kidding xD I'm actually Hermione Granger.
 * Diary: Oh. Ok. I'm still Tom Riddle. Anyway, wanna go into the past and see me talk to guys with beards?

 * Charlie Chan, he was a hell of a man
 * Went back to China with his shit in his hand.
 * He had 5 women up against a wall,
 * I'll bet you 5 dollars that he fucked them all.
 * He fucked them hard, he fucked them long,
 * He fucked them all night until his shit got sore.
 * He went to the doctor, the doctor said,
 * I'm sorry Charlie, your dick is dead.
 * Doctor, doctor, that can't be true!
 * Yes it is, Charlie. Your balls are too.
 * Bernie Mac

Chaos

 * Belkar: (after getting a restraining order) OK. Well, this all seems in order, so I guess I'll- oh! Wait. You seem to have made a mistake right here.

Clown choking
I wanted to put a reference to masturbation in one of the scripts for the Sandman. It was immediately cut by the editor. He told me, "There's no masturbation in the DC Universe." To which my reaction was, "Well that explains a lot about the DC Universe."
 * --Neil Gaiman

Comedy

 * Foster: Dude, this guy wouldn’t see the meaning of a joke even if it grabbed a big knife, chopped his head off and started eating dog food.
 * Jester: You're not funny when you're hungry.
 * Midrock

I'm struck by how laughter connects you with people. It's almost impossible to maintain any kind of distance or any sense of social hierarchy when you're just howling with laughter. Laughter is a force for democracy.
 * John Cleese


 * Deadpool: Dang! Nice shootin', Legola-- wait, how often do people call you Legolas?
 * Hawkeye: All the time.
 * Deadpool: Nice shootin', Hunger Games!
 * Hawkeye: Heard it.

 * Hawkeye: Sorry, man.
 * A+X


 * Man: Good afternoon, sir. I am looking for a Miss Jean Grey.
 * Angel: She's dead. Come back next week.
 * X-Men

"What's up Doc?" is a very simple thing. It's only funny because it's in a situation. It was an all Bugs Bunny line. It wasn't funny. If you put it in human terms; you come home late one night from work, you walk up to the gate in the yard, you walk through the gate and up into the front room, the door is partly open and there's some guy shooting under your living room. So what do you do? You run if you have any sense, the least you can do is call the cops. But what if you come up and tap him on the shoulder and look over and say "What's up Doc?" You're interested in what he's doing. That's ridiculous. That's not what you say at a time like that. So that's why it's funny, I think. In other words it's asking a perfectly legitimate question in a perfectly illogical situation.
 * Chuck Jones

Conspiracy
Most secret societies have the urge to remain secret (and also the urge to remain societies, otherwise the whole thing becomes pointless). The Buccaneers, however, were so busy all the time trying to stay alive and relatively safe that secrecy didn't seem that much of an urgency to them, mainly because they got tired of so many secrets. They didn't carry large neon signs around saying they existed, but they'd probably tell you who they were and what they did if you happened to come across one and asked. Unlike most secret societies, the Buccaneers weren't that hard to find. They were, however, hard to lose.
 * -- (Mythorama)

Belkar: It's as true today as when I started adventuring: "When in doubt, set something on fire."
 * The Order of the Stick

Country
John Cleese: (after being interrupted) What about my rustic monologue? (pause) I'm not sleeping with that producer again.

In fact, I wanted to be John Cleese and it took some time to realize the job was in fact taken.
 * --Douglas Adams

Patriotism, that's some messed up stuff. All of them people, especially Americans, saying they love their country. I figure that by "country" they either mean its culture and people or the land itself; but you can't love everyone in a whole country, and if you love the land you can as easily love anyone else's land. A country is just something humans make up so they can have something in common with the people who live close to them. America was created by Americans so they wouldn't have to be Canadians.
 * Capt. Morgan Monkeyzen


 * Crixus: Oh, he's slow, this one, isn't he?
 * Barca: What'd you expect, from a Thracian? Smells like fresh shit.
 * Crixus: Oh, they all do. Except for their women. They smell like... piss and shit.
 * Spartacus: What are you, then?

Doc: My pickel'd eggs... He took mah pickel'd eggs. Now who steals pickel'd eggs??

We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars.

Capt. Morgan Monkeyzen: You know how they say everyone lies in shitholes in the ground, and only the succesful ones can get out? Shit, nobody can get out of the holes. Not even the gods can get out of their holes. All we can do is stick our heads out and see who else got a hole better than ours.

It came a time in the entrails of History when Buccaneers thought it'd be easier for them to pass vital information between themselves if they just put it all in a book, made copies for each Buccaneer and updated it every year or so with the discoveries that they made in the meantime. For the first edition, the Alzar nominated the experts on each of the faery species to write extensive texts on the appearance, behaviour, distribution and aproach of each of their subjects. The entry on "Stymphalian Birds" happened to be attributed to an ancestor of Rhog Kironoko, who had spent several years living near a flock of these birds, breeding them, eating their flesh and eggs, he spoke their tongue and had his wife, children and best friends all killed by them in their mating season. While other experts made very long texts for the entries of the creatures they spent their lives with (which have proved useful for following generations of Buccaneers), to this day, the entry on the Stymphalian Birds says simply "Fuck them".

Captain Jack Sparrow: Me, I'm dishonest. And a dishonest man you can always trust to be dishonest. Honestly. It's the honest ones you gotta watch out for, 'cause you never know when they're going to do something incredibly... stupid.

Some men love truth so much that they seem to be in continual fear lest she should catch cold on over-exposure.

 * His plan was simple - not because Angelo was a man of simple tastes, but because he was himself a simple man. Simple plans were all the plans he knew how to do.
 * In the world there were, to Ogyte's understanding, four types of person: there were those who said "Let's stay home and make dinner" and there were those who said "Let's go to the moon". To the latter, there were those who replied with "Don't be foolish, that's impossible" and there were those who replied with "How?"
 * Whenever Zofia had to refer to something which she knew had happened in the past but wasn't quite sure on which point of the past this was, she always said that it happened a million years ago. At least this way people realized she was joking, except for Ogyte, who believed her and never learnt to count to one million.

Individualism
I second that individualism!

Everybody's so busy wanting to be down with the gang. "I'm conservative", "I'm liberal", "I'm conservative". Bullshit! Be a fucking person! Lis-ten! Let it swirl around your head.

A large crisis requires a large plan. Now get me two pencils and a pair of underpants. (http://finchley.deviantart.com/art/Blackadder-Tribute-53086771)

 * It is not necessary for the public to know whether I am joking or whether I am serious, just as it is not necessary for me to know it myself.
 * Drawing is the honesty of the art. There is no possibility of cheating. It is either good or bad.

 * Animals and plants cannot understand our business, so we have denied that they can understand their own. What we call inorganic matter cannot understand the animals’ and plants’ business, we have therefore denied that it can understand anything whatever.

What to do if you find yourself stuck with no hope of rescue: Consider yourself lucky that life has been good to you so far. Alternatively, if life hasn't been good to you so far, which given your present circumstances seems more likely, consider yourself lucky that it won't be troubling you much longer.
 * --Douglas Adams

''"The Buccaneer's Guide to Faerie" is a 21st century-written book of the authory of the Buccaneer wizard biologist Captain Morgan Monkeypen, its title giving alusion to The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. The book teaches several ways for human beings to find and distinguish the species of supernatural beings that populate the Earth, how to protect oneself from them and, ultimately, how to become one. Since its first publishing in 2056, it has become widely popular amongst Mythology-lovers and Neopagans, often used as a grimoire, and has been an essential instrument upon the Faerie Revolution of the Third Millenium. Despite several more unfortunate circumstances which had eventually led to bloody wars, "The Buccaneer's Guide to Faerie" has proved itself to be of interest even to the faery world, becoming one of the top five best-selling post-Renaissance books for faeries and witches of all the world, along with titles such as "100 Ways to Cook Water-Nixie", "Touristic Spots of Atlantis", "Fifty Reasons Why Kidnapping Children Stops Global Warming", and "Twilight".''

What a happiness this must have been seventy or eighty years ago and upwards, to those chosen few who had the good luck to be born on the eve of this festival of all festivals; when the whole earth was so overrun with ghosts, boggles, bloody-bones, spirits, demons, ignis fatui, brownies, bugbears, black dogs, specters, shellycoats, scarecrows, witches, wizards, barguests, Robin-Goodfellows, hags, night-bats, scrags, breaknecks, fantasms, hobgoblins, hobhoulards, boggy-boes, dobbies, hob-thrusts, fetches, kelpies, warlocks, mock-beggars, mum-pokers, Jemmy-burties, urchins, satyrs, pans, fauns, sirens, tritons, centaurs, calcars, nymphs, imps, incubuses, spoorns, men-in-the-oak, hell-wains, fire-drakes, kit-a-can-sticks, Tom-tumblers, melch-dicks, larrs, kitty-witches, hobby-lanthorns, Dick-a-Tuesdays, Elf-fires, Gyl-burnt-tales, knockers, elves, rawheads, Meg-with-the-wads, old-shocks, ouphs, pad-foots, pixies, pictrees, giants, dwarfs, Tom-pokers, tutgots, snapdragons, sprets, spunks, conjurers, thurses, spurns, tantarrabobs, swaithes, tints, tod-lowries, Jack-in-the-Wads, mormos, changelings, redcaps, yeth-hounds, colt-pixies, Tom-thumbs, black-bugs, boggarts, scar-bugs, shag-foals, hodge-pochers, hob-thrushes, bugs, bull-beggars, bygorns, bolls, caddies, bomen, brags, wraiths, waffs, flay-boggarts, fiends, gallytrots, imps, gytrashes, patches, hob-and-lanthorns, gringes, boguests, bonelesses, Peg-powlers, pucks, fays, kidnappers, gallybeggars, hudskins, nickers, madcaps, trolls, robinets, friars' lanthorns, silkies, cauld-lads, death-hearses, goblins, hob-headlesses, bugaboos, kows, or cowes, nickies, nacks necks, waiths, miffies, buckies, ghouls, sylphs, guests, swarths, freiths, freits, gy-carlins Gyre-carling, pigmies, chittifaces, nixies, Jinny-burnt-tails, dudmen, hell-hounds, dopple-gangers, boggleboes, bogies, redmen, portunes, grants, hobbits, hobgoblins, brown-men, cowies, dunnies, wirrikows, alholdes, mannikins, follets, korreds, lubberkins, cluricauns, kobolds, leprechauns, kors, mares, korreds, puckles korigans, sylvans, succubuses, blackmen, shadows, banshees, lian-hanshees, clabbernappers, Gabriel-hounds, mawkins, doubles, corpse lights or candles, scrats, mahounds, trows, gnomes, sprites, fates, fiends, sibyls, nicknevins, whitewomen, fairies, thrummy-caps, cutties, and nisses, and apparitions of every shape, make, form, fashion, kind and description, that there was not a village in England that had not its own peculiar ghost. Nay, every lone tenement, castle, or mansion-house, which could boast of any antiquity had its bogle, its specter, or its knocker. The churches, churchyards, and crossroads were all haunted. Every green lane had its boulder-stone on which an apparition kept watch at night. Every common had its circle of fairies belonging to it. And there was scarcely a shepherd to be met with who had not seen a spirit!

 * Captain: And drunk, thank you, Teal.

Paganism
Monotheism is, to me, a great simplification. I mean the Qabalah has a great multiplicity of gods, but at the very top of the Qabalic Tree of Life, you have this one sphere that is absolute God, the monad, something which is indivisible. All of the other gods, and indeed everything else in the universe, is a kind of emanation of that God. Now, that’s fine, but it's when you suggest that there is only that one God, at this kind of unreachable height above humanity, and there is nothing in between, you’re limiting and simplifying the thing. I tend to think of Paganism as a kind of alphabet, as a language, it's like all of the gods are letters in that language. They express nuances, shades of meaning or certain subtleties of ideas, whereas monotheism tends to just be one vowel and it's just something like 'oooooooo'. It's a monkey sound.

Elf: (on humans) Their precious free will, capable of conquering mountains and oceans, only brings out one trait in them: covetousness. Everything in their lives boils down to it. To have more than they already do. Gold, women, land, titles, glory... men only live to possess. It is both a great strength and a terrible weakness that makes them conquerors as well as thieves. Iwolena says that is what makes them so great and fascinating. That their paradoxes drive them to create so many new things.

Piratage

 * Captain Morgan Monkeyzen: Being a pirate's not about knowing how to swordfight. It's about knowing how to avoid swordfighting.

There are only two rules of tactics: never be without a plan, and never rely on it.
 * Magic the Gathering

Some pirates achieved immortality by great deeds of cruelty or derring-do. Some achieved immortality by amassing great wealth. But the captain had long ago decided that he would, on the whole, prefer to achieve immortality by not dying.
 * The Colour of Magic

Perhaps on the rare occasion, pursuing the right course demands an act of piracy... Piracy itself can be the right course.
 * Pirates of the Caribbean


 * Shireen: You were a pirate once.
 * Davos: No, I was never a pirate. I was a smuggler.
 * Shireen: What's the difference?
 * Davos: Well, if you're a famous smuggler, you're not doing it right.

I think Bush sent that girl to Kobe's room. Bush sent that girl to Kobe's room, Bush sent that little boy to Michael Jackson's house. Bush killed Laci Peterson. Bush was fucking Paris Hilton in that video. All to get your mind off the war. Bush lied to me, they all lied to me: "We gotta go to Iraq because they're the most dangerous country on Earth. They're the most dangerous regime in the world." If they're so dangerous, how come it only took two weeks to take over the whole fucking country? Shit. Man, you couldn't take over Baltimore in two weeks.

"Mr President, what about the economy, when's it gonna pick up?"

 * Xykon: Shush, I'm on a tangent here. I get how it makes it easier to get out of bed if you hold yourself all high and mighty above us, but you're really not better than us. You just have a class with tougher alignment restrictions. Remember, paladin: Anger leads to hate, hate leads to... fear? Or is it suffering? I can never remember how this goes.
 * Redcloak: No, no, it's fear leads to anger, anger leads to suffering, and suffering leads to the Dark Side.
 * Xykon: Are you sure? Because I really thought "hate" was in there someplace.
 * Redcloak: Hmm, maybe you're right, that does sorta sound familiar...
 * Monster: Doesn't something lead to "gluttony"?
 * Redcloak: No, that's something else.
 * Xykon: Look, the point is, it's a net gain for Team Us.
 * Miko: I'm guessing "stupidity" also has a place in that progression.
 * Redcloak: You have no idea. (the Demon Cockroaches play with lightsabres)

Time

 * Morgan: Say love, will I ever--
 * Fate: Yes.
 * Morgan: Yes what?
 * Fate: What you were going to ask.
 * Morgan: How did you know what I was going to ask?
 * Fate: I know everything.
 * Morgan: Of course.
 * Fate: Past, present and future.
 * Morgan: Wait, how did you know what I was gonna ask if I didn't even get a chance to ask it?
 * Fate: ... I knew I would say yes.
 * Morgan: Without knowing the question?
 * Fate: It was fate!
 * Morgan: And what if that's the wrong answer to the question I didn't even got around to ask?
 * Fate: If you didn't ask it, it doesn't have an answer. If it doesn't have an answer, why should it be a wrong one?
 * Morgan: I hate time travelling.
 * Mythorama


 * Redcloak: Good morning, this is your requested wake-up call. The time is now half past reasonable.

I don't want to talk to me, I scare me.

 * This is my timey wimey detector. It goes "ding" when there's stuff.
 * People assume that time is a straight progression of cause to effect, but actually, from a non-linear, non-subjective view point, it's more like a big ball of wibbly wobbly, timey wimey... stuff.
 * The Doctor


 * Ice Master: I'm sorry, Robert. I cannot tell you what the future holds for the X-Men. Our mere presence here has been dangerous enough. Anything more could have catastrophic consequences for --
 * Iceman: Right, right, I know the drill. We actually teach a class here on the ethics of time travel.
 * Ice Master: Yes, and who teaches that again?
 * Iceman: Um. Rachel Grey, the lady who... came here from the future. (beat) And never left. (beat) I guess we never learn, do we?
 * Ice Master: It would be a far less interesting world if we did.
 * X-Men: Battle of the Atom

Undeath

 * Lord Xykon: I tell you, it's the little day-to-day surprises that make unlife worth unliving. Have fun!
 * The Order of the Stick


 * Rosencrantz: Do you think death... could possibly be a boat?
 * Guildenstern: No, no, no. Death is not. Death isn't. Take my meaning? Death is the ultimate negative. Not being. You can't not be on a boat.
 * Rosencrantz: I've frequently not been on boats.
 * Guildenstern: No, no. What you've been is not on boats.
 * Rosencrantz: I wish I was dead.
 * Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead


 * Necross the Mad: I should say not -- I'm too busy trying to find a way to destroy the universe.
 * Cerebus: The whole universe? Isn't that rather drastic?
 * Necross the Mad: I prefer to think of it as suicide on a somewhat grander scale.
 * Cerebus: "Necross the Mad" doesn't half do you justice.
 * Cerebus the Aardvark

Universe

 * In the beginning the universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.
 * It is known that there are an infinite number of worlds, simply because there is an infinite amount of space for them to be in. However, not every one of them is inhabited. Therefore, there must be a finite number of inhabited worlds. Any finite number divided by infinity is as near to nothing as makes no odds, so the average population of all the planets in the Universe can be said to be zero. From this it follows that the population of the whole Universe is also zero, and that any people you may meet from time to time are merely the products of a deranged imagination.
 * --Douglas Adams

Because we recognize that with choice comes responsibility. We are all doomed, we have all sinned, we have all eaten of that pancake. But, if we're lucky, our sufferings will leave lilies in our wakes. Boom.
 * Glen David Gold

It suddenly struck me that that tiny pea, pretty and blue, was the Earth. I put up my thumb and shut one eye, and my thumb blotted out the planet Earth. I didn't feel like a giant. I felt very, very small.
 * Neil Armstrong

In this universe, absurdity tends to a maximum. Especially when I'm around.
 * Lando Calrissian

Hera: In the beginning, the world was without form and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep... until the Earth goddess, Gaea, sprang spontaneously from the chaos. And if you ask me, it's all been downhill from there.
 * Assault on New Olympus

Mortals lament as their lives flit by like mayflies, due to our action or our neglect. But someone has to lay down the law! Someone has to move history forward - whether that means flooding cities or wiping out whole races! Each of your deaths has served a purpose. None of you will ever grasp the fullness of my work. Am I terrible? Am I callous? Am I unjust? Of course! But I am also utterly necessary.
 * Zeus, Incredible Hercules

Violence
You know what they say, "There's no reason to ever hit a woman." Shit! There's a reason to hit everybody. You just don't do it. Shit, there's a reason to kick an old man down a flight of stairs. You just don't do it. Ain't nobody above an ass-whooping.
 * --Chris Rock

You don't need no gun control. You know what you need? We need some bullet control. Man, we need to control the bullets, that's right. I think all bullets should cost $5000. $5000 for a bullet. You know why? 'Cause if a bullet costs $5000, there'd be no more innocent bystanders. Every time someone gets shot, people will be like, "Damn, he must have did something." Niggas will say "you motherfucker, I'd kill you if I could afford it! I'm gonna get a second job, I'm gonna take a mortgage out on my house, and then you're a fucking dead man!" And even if you get shot by a stray bullet, you don't gotta go to no doctor to get it taken out, whoever shot you will take they bullet back! "I believe you have my property!"
 * --Chris Rock

It was already growling, and the growl was a low, rumbling snarl of spring-coiled menace, the sort of growl that starts in the back of one throat and ends up in someone else's.

 * Recruiting Major: Admiral – there have to be standards—
 * Ackbar: Major, ask yourself how many of the everyday heroes of the Rebellion – not just the names everyone knows – would have qualified to fight for their freedom under your rules, and then ask yourself if that answer doesn't make you look just a bit like a dewback's cloaca.
 * Star Wars

Violence is never the answer, unless the question is "what is never the answer?", in which case you could answer, "violence", but you'd be wrong, because violence is never the answer.

When Life Gives You Lemons
When life gives you lemons, make lemonade.

When life gives you lemons, save the receipt.

When life gives you lemons, say thank you, you ungrateful bastards.

When life gives you lemons, make apple juice, then sit back and watch the world try to figure how you did it.
