| 词汇 | what doesn’t kill me him makes me him stronger |
| 词源 | what doesn’t kill me (him) makes me (him) stronger. Said of a punishment, usually physical or mental torture, that doesn’t kill a person. I’d guess that this is an Americanism dating back about a century, but the earliest reference I’ve found to it is in the film Runaway Train (1980). |
