“There is nothing good unless you do it.” Erich Kästner. German author, poet, satirist. His books were publicly burned by the Nazis in 1933. The Gestapo interrogated him. He stayed in Germany anyway, under a pseudonym, continuing to write. This design exists because Kästner lived this quote. He didn’t just say it. He acted on it under conditions that would have justified not acting. There is nothing good unless you do it. The emphasis is on the doing. This mug is for the person who understands that goodness is not passive. Who has decided to do the thing rather than wait for someone else to do it. Who takes Kästner seriously- not just the quote, but the life it came from. • Ceramic, lead and BPA-free • 11 oz: 3.79″ height x 3.25″ diameter (9.6 x 8.3 cm) • White print area, colored rim/inside/handle • Dishwasher and microwave safe Do the good thing.
