If life gives you melons, you might be dyslexic. (not my own)
There are two kinds of folks who sit around thinking about how to kill people:
psychopaths and mystery writers.

I'm the kind that pays better.

Take what life throws at you. Unless it hits your head and you die.

Don't knock on death's door. Ring the doorbell and run; he hates that. (that one isn't my own)

When the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie... you're blind, not in love.
Honey, you should see me in a crown.

When life throws you lemons, squeeze em in your enemies eyes!

Where is life getting all these lemons?

When life throws you lemons, throw em' back and ask for chocolate
I am nothing
but a mouthful of 'sorry's, half-hearted
apologies that roll of my tongue, smoothquick, like 'r's
or maybe like pocket candy
that's just a bit too sweet.

When life gives you lemons, quit whining about not getting oranges and go chuck them at people.

Intellectual debates are just politically correct ways of excluding stupid people.

If at first you don't succeed, turn it off and on again.

When life gives you lemons, pay it forward.
We were born to be amazing.

If life gives you lemons, ask for a refund.

If life gives you lemons, be thankful that it didn't give you dog poop or something even worse.

Don't cry over spilt milk, cry over something more important, like chocolate milk. (Not mine.)

It's ill waiting for dead men's shoes, because they've already worn them.

It's all Greek to me, but it's Alien to you. (My teacher said that. Grrrrrrr.)

It's a jungle out there, so we'd better stay in and watch the telly or think of interesting philosophical stuff. :D
you'll never find another sweet little girl with sequined sea foam eyes
ocean lapping voice, smile coy as the brightest quiet span of sky
and you're all alone again tonight; not again, not again, not again.
and don't it feel alright, and don't it feel so nice? lovely.

When life gives you lemons claim you can make your face implode, then eat them all at once.

Live expecting Murphy's law to kick your ass, but try for better.

Life doesn't care how much you've failed. The odds will never change.

There isn't anything more foolish then a man/woman chasing his/her hat.
All I can hear; "I me mine, I me mine, I me mine". Even those tears; "I me mine, I me mine, I me mine". No one's frightened of playing it. Everyone's saying it. Flowing more freely than wine. All through your life; "I me mine".

I'm not sure if someone's already posted this but:
When life gives you lemons, take them. Because hey, free lemons.

My three favourites..

"If life throws you lemons, throw them at people you don't like"
"If Life gives you lemons, keep them, because, hey, free lemons"
"If life threw lemons at you, wouldn't it hurt?"

When life gives you lemons, zest them. Not only will the zest make anything you bake or cook amazing, but grating lemon peel is an excellent way to vent frustration.

Be pessimistic. That way, either you're right, or you're pleasantly surprised.

(Actually, studies have been done showing that people are optimistic when they think they're being neutral - so, really, being pessimistic is just being realistic.)

I shall take what I want, for by virtue of my desire, it is already mine.

I'm having a surprise birthday party for Jesus. (not mine)

I find atheists just as annoying as fundamentalist Christians, meaning I've found a way to feel superior to both. (also not mine, just rewritten by me)

When life hands you lemons make beef stew!
When life hands you lemons chunk them at people you don't like.
If you short get on a chair before you try to punch them. (That last one is kind of an inside joke.)
If life gives you lemons.................make beef stew!!!
If someone is taller than you............stand on something so you can punch them! lol thats an inside joke so if you don't get sorry.

When life gives you lemons, you make lemon juice; not lemonade - thing is you're sensible, and not at all creative.
