Nietzsche Distilling Co. — What Doesn't Kill Me Makes Me Stronger T-Shirt

Friedrich Nietzsche didn't drink.

Which makes him the perfect face of a whiskey distillery.

The Nietzsche Distilling Co. tee is part of the Awkweird Misappropriated Quotes series — a collection of historically accurate quotes, attached to completely inappropriate contexts, worn by people who are too smart for their own good.

"What Doesn't Kill Me Makes Me Stronger" is one of the most quoted lines in the history of motivational posters, gym walls, and breakup playlists. Nietzsche wrote it in 1888. He spent the last eleven years of his life in a mental institution. Make of that what you will.

The label is deadpan. The shirt is black. The existential crisis is complimentary.

Wear it to:

• Philosophy class
• The bar (ironic or otherwise)
• Anywhere you want someone to either laugh immediately or walk away confused — both are correct responses

Part of the Misappropriated Quotes Series. Collect them all. Nietzsche would have hated that.
