English term or phrase: \"When push comes to shove, you gotta do what you love
There's this "Futurama" quote:
"When push comes to shove, you gotta do what you love -- even if it's not a good idea."
I mean, seriously, what kind of idiot thinks they can change the world by starting a political party?
This kind of idiot, apparently.
But it works!

Vine vremea, fă ce-ți place, chiar dacă nu e o idee bună?? nu sunt sigură că e corect...
o formulare mai amuzantă, mai sugestivă caut..

Mulțumesc.

"When push comes to shove" = cand ajunge cutitul la os, cand esti pus la zid, cand nu mai ai incotro, cand e nevoie de masuri drastice

\\\"when push comes to shove, you gotta do what you love
Când nu mai ai ce-i face, fă ce îți place


Explanation:
E o simplificare evidentă a expresiei mult mai plastice din engleză, dar are avantajul că păstrează rima săltăreață.
Cu variante: Dacă nu mai ai ce-i face, trebuie să faci ce-ți place.
