In "Biggles Fails to Return" one of the characters (Bertie) throws a lemon at a man who tried to kill him (by hitting him over the head with a frying pan and throwing him down some steps). I think it hit him in the eye. Turned out they were actually on the same side.

This is one of those twee aphorisms that is supposed to make you feel better, but doesn't, because it doesn't actually make a lot of sense.
It just takes one negative homonym of the word lemon and substitutes it for positive one. It's no more meaningful than "If life gives you cancer... write a horoscope".

Still, I like the options  * smile *

recognize the lemon and then metamorphosize it into something more postive.

Use one slice with your shot of tequila, make a lemon meringue pie with the peels and juice, and then plant the seeds.

My SO suggested it to me; I'm enjoying it a lot. It's very whimsical. The only other Pratchett I've read is only half-Pratchett, and that's Good Omens.
