    “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!”

    — Cave Johnson, founder and CEO of Aperture Science

      Life itself is lemons.

      “Rage, rage against the dying of the lemon.”

      Why bother. I’d rather not rage. Too tired. I’d rather sleep than “get mad” or “rage”…

      Or read horror stories or watch Godzilla movies. It won’t take too long to die. I’m getting older. Best think about getting old? You get to realize how awful existence really is, as it takes everything away, but by bit.
