‘The Only Safe Thing is’ — Elaine May Quote Tee | Wear Words Typographic Statement Tee — Oversized Tee

“The only safe thing is to take a chance.” This was the shared motto of Elaine May and Mike Nichols in their late-1950s improv days — Nichols quoted it too — though nobody lived it harder than May, who kept gambling on unruly films like A New Leaf. The motto turns caution inside out: the real risk is the safe choice that quietly costs you the work worth making.

**AS Colour 5082 “Faded Bone” — Oversized Tee (Cream finish).** 100% carded cotton, heavyweight 240 gsm, garment-dyed — each tee fades a little differently, so no two are identical. Oversized, boxy relaxed fit, dropped shoulders, wide twin-stitched ribbed neck, side-seamed, pre-shrunk (size down for a less roomy look). Care: machine wash cold inside-out with like colors, do NOT bleach, do NOT tumble dry (line dry in the shade to protect the garment dye), cool iron inside-out (never iron the print).
