"I’ve been thinking. 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 am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life’s manager! Make life rue the day it thought is could give me lemons! Do you know who I am? I’m the man who’s going to burn your house down! With the lemons! I’m going to get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!"

The lemon speech, originating from the game Portal 2, which the predecessor of introduced the "The Cake is a Lie" and "Still Alive" memes, is of a speech given by a dying Cave Johnson, the CEO of Aperture Science Innovations.
