"that which does not kill us, makes us stranger"

Originally an Aeon Flux quote, from the second full length episode, I believe. The Joker also says it in the new Batman, I'd say its more of an easter egg there than a rip-off; they knew their inspirations, and cult influences of the mid-90's were very prominent. In fact, I found the same interplays, juxtapostions, and themes from Aeon Flux were all touched upon in that movie. I smelled a little Twisted Metal too; but that's probably just the psycho clown.
Originally?

What does not kill me, makes me stronger.
Friedrich Nietzsche, Twilight of the Idols, 1888
German philosopher (1844 - 1900)


Kids these days.

read the quote a little more carefully. its a play on nietzsche. i'd suggest watching the aeon episode too, it was from the first run of full lengths, when Peter Chung was still doing most of the work making them, so its really good. i don't know if you can find them online streaming, but i know there is a torrent out there somewhere, i'd even suggest buying the DVD; they're more than just cool, their cult. you're friends will be amazed.
