Tattoo Ideas: Quotes on Strength, Adversity, Courage
By becauseilive
After writing over two dozen hubs on tattoo ideas that showcased pictures as the majority of the content, I started noticing that a large portion of the comments were from people asking for ideas on what to say, not so much on how to say it. Like Lindsay, for example, who commented on the hub Tattoo Ideas: Words & Phrases and said: "I want some sort of latin script with a phrase having to do with karma." Or Jesso, who said: "I have a colourful fish on my left lower back, but next I want a script.. .. just what I don't know... something positive to remind me every day is mine, I am in control of my destiny."
The tricky thing about quote tattoos is that nine times out of ten they can't be too long. Unless you have a huge expanse of skin that you plan on dedicating to the tat, like a forearm or your entire back, you're going to need to pick a quote that's short enough to fit in a small area. A few years ago my ex wanted to get something I had written tattooed on her in my handwriting. The quote she wanted was twenty-one words long, and she wanted it somewhere on her inner forearms. As she is already fairly heavily tattooed, there was no criteria such as having to get it on a place that could be easily hidden if need be. She's lucky. She ended up getting it running lengthwise down her arm next to the word GIRL that was already there. Most people don't have the same flexibility as her. Maybe your job is too professional for tattoos and piercings, or you don't want your mother to see it. If that's the case, then a quote tattoo can be challenging to find space for. And if you think you're going to fit an entire poem (unless it's a haiku) on your wrist by shrinking down the letters to a size 5 font, you're mistaken. Good tattoo artists will only let you make the lettering so small, because they know that tattoos blend, fade and bleed over time. The smaller the font, the better the chance that you'll be left with a meaningless blob ten years down the road.
So believe it or not, I went back through all 2,000+ comments and tried to identify the most common themes people requested when asking for help with quote ideas. In addition to being a voracious reader, I've been compiling quotes in notebooks and journals since I was thirteen. I would like for this hub to turn into a series of hubs broken down by category. So please, if you have any ideas or would like to share a favorite quote of yours, feel free to comment! The examples I've chosen for this particular hub may not resonate with everyone. You might read it and get nothing out of it. But my hope is that something will resonate with someone, somewhere, and the words written here will inspire you to take a step you may not have taken otherwise.

"I may be lying in the gutter but I'm looking at the stars" is actually a paraphrase of Oscar Wilde's quote:
"We're all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars"
I like his version better.

Sal...I just saw a beautiful one! One person got "til death" and the other "does us part"
Sal! My Husband just deployed to Afghanistan. He got a script on his arm before he left. I guess that just what men do before they leave. I saw a few quotes that are really good. I've been browsing for some. They're especially good if you like the writer of them too.
"The only abnormality is the incapacity to love." ~Anaïs Nin, The Diaries of Anaïs Nin
"and in time this too shall pass"
I think that one is really good for a couple going through a deployment. He's going to go through the hardship of war and being away from you, friends and family. You're going to go through the pain of worrying and waiting for your partner. It's not easy but it will pass and you guys will be together again. trust me, once he's back in your arms it will feel like he never left them.

katie here are some quotes hope u like them:1- God places the heaviest burden on those who can carry its weight.: reggie white.2- March on. Do not tarry. To go forward is to move toward perfection. March on, and fear not the thorns, or the sharp stones on life's path. gibran khalil gibran. ( a lebanese idol )3- The courage of life is often a less dramatic spectacle than the courage of a final moment, but it is no less a magnificent mixture of triumph and tragedy. A man does what he must- in spite of personal consequences, in spite of obstacles and dangers and pressures-and that is the basis of all morality.: john f. kennedy.

im getting a quote on my lower back, im very conservative and this will be my first and only tat. my parents wont know either. its just for me, i always wanted the "la bella vita"- the beautiful life. written their but im sick of the phrase now. then i thought live love laugh would be nice, but i think it would look weird. i know i want something small. i want it to be about life and happiness. i was thinking of just getting "believe" written their with maybe a peace sign and a cross on each side. im just not sure. because i really want it to mean something. i love the idea of the dove, but my bestfriend has it and it would remind me of her which i dont want, and angel wings are very cool but i havnt been able to find any designs of them i liked on the lower back.
i got " pain is inevitable suffering is optional " tattoed on my chest 2 weeks ago think its a brilliant quote
im getting my first tat today across my upper back right below the tank top line of just 1 word ~sinner~ representing i do sin we all do i have sinned and i will mostlikely agien im not very religous but because of my sins i have a beautyful daughter comeing and shes so precious to me im now married but my daughter was consieved b4 we got married n no thats not the reason we got married we found out 3 days after but we all sin its inevidable not to n ive been through alot n my life n seen alot n i know that we all make our mastakes so im not afraid to admit that i sin. so imma show it everything i did n my past has lead me to where i am today and that includes my sins and i love where i am today i wouldent change a thing. alot of these quotes are rlly good on here to btw

KATIE:
I was also the victim of rape, years ago, and just recently dealt with it. I want a tattoo that marks this new stage of my life. I love the yiddish quote "God gave burdens, also shoulders." I'm thinking of getting it in Hebrew. Also, not neccessarily for a tat, but the words of Maya Angelou's poem "I rise" are very expressive of the courage many women and men must develop through the recovery period, and may be of interest to you. Best wishes.
Jealousy Qoutes.
To jealousy, nothing is more frightful then laughter.
jealousy is no more than feeling alone, against smiling enemies.
before you start pointing fingers, make sure your hands are clean,

im 16(about to be 17 in september) and im getting my first tattoo the day after i graduate from high school. I have my whole senior year to think about my tattoo but i want to start narrowing down what i want now and then building upon it. i know i want something similar to "what doesn't kill me makes me stronger"
i was thinking some thing like "Bear and endure: This sorrow will one day prove to be for your good." something similar to that. i just dont want something to popular. I want something that symbolizes all the strength that ive acquired and also something that reminds me of my mother.
if u guys can think of any quotes feel free to post them here or email me at jassie929@yahoo.com.
thanks!

ii want a quote for me and friend t'anna
something deep and short.saying something bout how we been there for eachother since lil kids and ill do anything for her and we'll always be kool til death
hey
my best friend told me that she saw a quote a few months back and since then I've done nothing but figure out how to design the tattoo for it. Here's the problem: she told me the quote incorrectly and now that i've looked up the actual quote, i'm not as crazy about it... would it be weird to have a quote that isn't really a quote???
my friend told me the quote was: "Do not wish for easier lives. Wish to be stronger men." (JFK)
I found out the quote was originally by an episcopal bishop in the late 1800's that JFK used again in a speech and it actually goes like this: "Do not pray for easy lives. Pray to be stronger men."
so does anyone think it would be odd to have it printed the first way and not the actual quote? feel free to email me: grg243@gmail.com

im looking to get a tattoo and want it to mean the world to me. my father has struggled with alcoholism my entire life. it has effected me greatly, in the obvious negative ways but also in ways i have come to see as positive. i am the person i am because of my sick father and personally i love who i am growing to be. i am very independant as a result of my experiences as well as determined and humorous. i am looking for a very short quote (only a few words) to symbolize all i have overcome. i am the strongest person i know because of it, except for my mom of course who i am wishing will write the quote i choose to symbolize my respect and love for my mom, my hero, through the roughest time in our lives. if you have any good and short quotes about strength or other ideas i would be very grateful. thank you!
My favourite quote is
When the power of love overcomes the love of power there will be peace.
OR
In complete darkness we are all the same, it is only our knowledge and wisdom that separate us, don't let your eyes deceive you.
i've got a tat on my side...
Love as is told,
By the seers of old
Comes as a butterfly
Tipped with gold
Flutters and flies
Across sunlit skies
Weaving 'round hearts
That were once cold.

dont ever frown ...you never know who might be falling in love with your smile
a couple i know just got awesome tattoos.. he got "Once upon a time..." on his forearm and she got "...& they lived happily ever after" on her hip.. if they were to break up both tattoos would still be cool, especially for a girl bc we all want a fairytale :)
its not about wanting to win, its about refusing to lose.

there's a quote i love from joni mitchell's song "a case of you" and it goes
"part of you pours out of me in these lines from time to time."
its about a painter who is in love; here is the whole verse:
Oh I am a lonely painter
I live in a box of paints
Im frightened by the devil
And Im drawn to those ones that aint afraid
I remember that time that you told me, you said
Love is touching souls
Surely you touched mine
Cause part of you pours out of me
In these lines from time to time

I am deploying to Iraq here in December, and I was wondering if anyone has any good ideas of a quote that would work. I have an idea of having a shoulder of a uniformed soldier with his whole silouette against a building with something evil mirroring himself with the verse Psalm 24:3; "Though I walk through the valley of shadows and death; I fear no evil; For he is with me." Whatcha think?
"What we do in life, echoes throughout eternity."
hey i just got a quote tattooed on my rib cage, its something i like to live my life by and its really good for me because i pride my self on being optimistic, it says " There are no ipmossible dreams just our limited perception of what is possible" i think it'd be good for anyone that has had a hard past but is determind to make something of themselves and know that nothing is impossible, its a good reminder for me to have on my at all times, really helps when things get tuff to help move forward. hope it helps someone.
thanks

Thanks.
life is divine choas...
i know it's long but i wrote it myself...
sometimes words said are words meant.....
other times words said are words better left alone......
as you cannot take back what has been spoken...
are these words standing with meaning?
are they words that stand upon a solid foundation?
or are they a figment of our past which we cannot change, we cannot recreate, and upon knowing this they are the devil within..... reminding us of our sin.
hey.. yeah thinking of getting a quote tattoo about a guy that broke my heart.. any ideas??

@ KELLIE, you could do Carpe Diem, quam minimum credula postera. It was posted earlier in the thread and means seize the day, place no trust in tomorrow in latin. i was thinking about this one myself. i also really like the one "die living" but don't know where i would get either.
"you don't need wings to fly"
There's so many different ways to interprut it, I really love it!
I'm thinking about getting a quote on my side too, all i've come up with so far that means something to me is "All I can be is me, no matter who that is" by Bob Dylan. Everything else i've seen and liked is either too long or I liked it because it was funny.
I'm thinking about getting a quote on my side, don't want anything too long, roughly want something around 16 words. Something to do with love? or something cute. I originally had "nothing will come of nothing" from King Lear but i don't know. Anyone have any ideas?

any ideas let me know!
thanks so much
I'm about to turn 19. I've made many mistakes in my past I want a tattoo on my ribs about overcoming and life.
Any Ideas??? jgeddrie@gmail.com
I am in love with the fact you posted Emersons quote,
"What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us"
i have a best friend that was in a car wreck this past year and paralyzed from the neck down. I've been thinking about that quote as a tattoo, not to remember him, but more as an inspiration of his strength..
Im 18 and new to tattoos so i am not sure what kind of artwork could go with it. I don't want just the quote, but I am lost as to some art that would be appropriate with it, as the quote really holds true to my heart... if you have any advice, i would really appreciate the help anyone could give. thanks, one love

idk if Katie will see this now since it was so long ago, but i too was raped at the age of 14. i'm now only turning 18, but i love expressing myself through tattoos. because of everything that i've been through, especially that, i'm getting the quote "God places the heaviest burdon on those who can carry its weight" on my left inner forearm. i think it'll remind me of how far i've come emotionally in my life.
i'm 17 and planning to get a tattoo on my 18th in a couple of weeks. im not sure if i want a quote but here are a few that i like.
-Laugh when you can, apologise when you should and let go of what you can't change. kiss slowly, play hard, forgive quickly, take chances, give everything and have no regrets. life's too short to be anything but happy
-To be is to exist, to do is to live.
-Laugh as much as you breathe, love as long as you live.
I got a script tattoo on my ribs recently.. it's a quote by Che Guevara in spanish and says 'Sueña y seras libre en espiritu, Lucha y seras libre en la vida'... which means 'dream and you'll be free in spirit, fight and you'll be free in life'... i love it andi'm planning my next ones
i need a quote to symbolize my grandmother,she just passed away and she was a big part in my life i miss her and will always love her... i miss her everyday and one day i wish im like her wgen i become a grandma like her.
"blood is thicker than water"...
MIA
i really liked the last quote you had, it really seems true to me anyway.
I was in a car accident last year doing buckforty on a loose gravel road, the car was totalled but i walked away with a bumps and bruises. I've wanted a tattoo ever since but i can't think of anything to do with it. I've always thought of wings/an angel flutter over a set of keys, saying something but i don't know what. I also thought of a line that says something like i was put on this world for a reason and was given a second chance to do something.
Any Ideas?

To that Snake person, I believe that's quoted wrong. If that's from the song Omerta by Lamb of God, then it should go like this:
Whoever appeals to the law against his fellow man is either a fool or a coward. Whoever cannot take care of himself without that law is both. For a wounded man shall say to his assailant; if I live I will kill you, if I die, you are forgiven. Such is the rule of honor.

Love all the quotes on this page i am on the hunt for another quote to do with strength. I got my first tattoo a few months ago on my back it says LIVE WELL, LOVE ALWAYS LAUGH OFTEN in greek. Everyone that has seen it loves it. Any ideas would be appreciated.
lil_lex@windowslive.com
really inspiring quote-
Give me firm ground, and i will move the earth.
I'm getting a tattoo in a few days that says... "Not everyone can do everything, but someone can do something.
I have 4 quote Tattoos. One one my collar bone/neck piece that says Leave No Doubt. One on my right arms that says Try Burning This One Wrapped over and under and American flag. Only left arm Is a skull with an American flag theme that says All That Is Necessary For The Triumph of Evil is For Good Men To Do Nothing. And the last one runs the length of my spine and says Only God Can Judge Me. Some other good quotes are
Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night
si vis pacem para bellum (if you want peace prepare for war)
The only easy day was yesterday
Death before dishonor
I thought all of these are good quotes.
I have three tattoos.
My shoulder: a blue star and the phrase "second star to the right and straight on 'till morning" to remind me to never loose my innocent childish side, and i will neer forget how to get to neverland
My left wrist: the number 525,600. that's how many minutes are in a year. i will never take a single one for granted
My side: a bird. above it says "If you never jump," and below it says "You'll never know id you can fly"
I'm looking to get another one dealing with strength, endurance, or never taking life for granted

MARIE,
If you ever read this site again, a good quote in memory of your too young cousins would be
"They were angels in waiting for wings" or just "They were angels in waiting". It's from a song by Tammy Cochran, about 2 loved ones who died at a young age. The chours goes:
They were angels in waiting
Waiting for wings to fly from this world
away from their pain
treasuring time, til time came to leave
leaving behind, sweet memories
they were angels in waiting, angels in waiting for wings
And you said something about putting a date too. But if you wanted you could do their birth flower on both sides of the quote. Birth flowers are as follows:
January- Carnation
February- Iris
March- Daffodils
April- Daisy
May- Lily of the Valley
June- Rose
July- Larkspur
August- Gladiolis
September- Aster
October- Marigold
November- Chrysanthemum
December- Poinsettia
Birth flowers are a good idea for a female who is going to get a tattoo in memory of someone, or for their child. Hope that helps!!

Hey,
I want a tattoo on my neck with some kind of quote.
I suffer from a female sexual disorder which makes sex painful, it's somthing im still facing and trying to cure, and i'd like a quote that relates to Hope, Strength, Not giving up, Living Life to the fullest. Something along those lines, so that when im feeling hopeless, i can see my tattoo and be reminded to stay positive, and fight till the end and not to give up. I was also thinking about having this quote next to a lotus flower, as these flowers are born in the muddle, and face a struggle to reach the surface of the water, and once they get there, they finally bloom! I feel it really represents me and my struggles.
its going on my neck, so not too long, and im going to design it myself, im quite arty.
Please let me know on xcarlymeganx@hotmail.co.uk
I would really appreciate it
Thanks!

Hey im about to turn 17 and am hoping to get a tattoo for my bday. im looking to get a quote along my rib cage and not to sure on what to get. i want something that really means a lot to me and that i wont regret later in life. i am really mature for my age and have dealt with a lot of stuff that someone my age shouldnt have dealt with. it seems that i am always there for others, but when i need something no one seems to be there for me i have a really hard time trusting others due to a past relationship and it seems unhappiness seems to sit on my shoulders. i really want a quote that relates to this and that will remind me to be happy and eventually good things will come my way. if anyone has any ideas please, please let me know :) thanks
i'd rather beg for forgivness then ask for permission.
yoo this site s de shit
iam looking for some quotes in different languages can anybody help plz
thnx YE
A winner never quits and a quitter never wins
since youve been gone ive been all alone but alone is steriods cause its made me strong
we should seize the moment; try to freeze it and own it, squeeze it and hold it-- cause these minutes are golden.
No need to worry about everything I've done, Live every second like it was my last one. Don't look back got a new direction
when u figure out love is all that really matters after all
it sure makes everything else seem so small
i rise above my problems && still remain here;;i hope the picture painted clear, if your heart's filled with faith then you cant fear.
youll never leave where you are until you decide where youd rather be
the purpose of life is not to be happy-- but to matter, to be productive, to be useful && to have it make some difference that you have lived at all.
Close my eyes, Let the whole thing pass me by, There is no time to waste Asking why
i dont know what this worlds gonna bring but i know one thing-- that this is the life for me
ill do what it takes till i touch the sky. make a wish, take a chance, make a change && break away. out of the darkness and into the sun; but i wont forget all the ones i love.
put a smile on your face && make the world a better place; you get what you give in this life that we life and all that you do will come back to you.
it took awhile to understand the beauty in just letting go.
Those who cannot remember the past,are condemned to repeat it.
maybe some women arent meant to be tamed. maybe they are supposed to run wild until they find someone just as wild to run with
nobody can go back and start a new beginning but anyone can start today and make a new ending
you can never undo whatevers been done. but you can learn to smile again. never give up; thats a big mistake. be true to your heart, even if it breaks.
"Imperfection is beauty; madness is genius. && its better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring" -Marilyn Monroe
Not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed until it is faced.
The past cant be rewritten, you get the life youre given. Some pages were turned, some bridges were burned; but they were all lessons learned.
some hearts just get lucky sometimes
We swallow greedily any lie that flatters us, but we sip only little by little at a truth we find bitter.
And though I make mistakes, ill never break your heart. And I swear by the moon, and the stars in the sky ill be there.\
Take my hand && we'll make it. i swear.
for the quote "my heart is my metranome" you spelled metronome wrong! FYI
I rather be hated for who i am, then be loved for who i am not.
inspire to be more
not to have more
never regret anything because at one time... it was exactly what you wanted
the tattoo is the mark of the soul
it can act as a window
through which we can see inside
or it can be a shield to protect us from those who cannot see past the surface
they say it takes a minute to find a special person, an hour to appreciate them,
a day to love them,
but then an entire life time to forget them
the human heart is like a ship on a stormy sea drivin about by wind blowing from all four corners of heaven
im getting 4 tattoos on my back and left arm on my arm im getting the names of my brother and sister and also one with the name of my boyfriend and on my back im getting a skull and crossbones and the flaming ring of fire
"..Woe is me!
The winged words on which my soul would pierce
Into the heights of love's rare universe,
Are chains of lead around its flight of fire--
I pant, I sink, I tremble, I expire." - Percy Bysshe Shelley, Epipsychidion (1821)
"And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.” - Anais Nin
hey everyon i am thinking about getting one of these on my back what do you think
- Tell me I can't.... I'll show you I can
-Let go of what you can't change... Give evrything and have no regrets
-In a world of fakes I dare to be real
what do you guys think ??????? post a comment or email me amare.1@hotmail.com

I'm ninteen, but have been terribly sick with Anorexia Nervosa since the age of thirteen. I've just recently lost my grandfather and my boyfriend of a long long time is joining the air force in a month. I honestly have no idea what to do anymore. I would love a tattoo quote just symbolizing everything I have been through and coninue to go through. It would be on my rib cage going all the way down. If you have ANY ideas, I would love to hear.
Thank you so much!

im 16 & i just lost the love of my life. but i want a quote on my back about strength & courage, cause its whats gotten me through all this.
Its been 10 years this year since I survived the wrath of Meningococcal.
The image of my tattoo is sorted.
I have an existing lotus flower, which will have the Chakra of survival (the root Chakra) above it, with two sparrows either side.
I need words, or a phrase.
Something that is indicative of survival.
I like the idea of "She flies with her own wings"
If anyone has any ideas, throw them at me!

hi, i'm wanting to get a quote tattoo going around my ankle... i want something to remind me that even though things are bad i need to keep going, and to stay strong because all i have is myself. any ideas?? because i'm kinda stuck....
"love is patient love is kind. it does not envy,it does not boast it is not proud. it is not rude, it is not self seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. love does not delight in evil, but rejoices with the truth. it always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perservers. love never fails."
this is from the bible, from corinthians 13.4-8
its a beautiful quote, thinking of getting it myself probably not the whole thing though.
hope this helps!

I was raped a couple of years ago and i am about to get "strength and the desire to succeed" on my wrist - as its what has kept me going. Just "Courage" is good, and "nothing is more precious than this day" is a quote from some old german guy (but its lovely) sorry lol dnt remember the name. TAKE CARE
also..slightly off topic but i am getting a lotus flower on my hip or ankle. It symbolises something beautiful and pure growing out of a troubled time - as they can grow in the dirtiest water. happy tatt hunting
one of my favorite:
Never Regret
even a strong girl hurts.
itll go on my left shoulder blade,
ive already got the chinese symbol for strength
on the top of my back between my neck and my back.
im planning on getting my first tattoo soon and i want a quote on my rist that says "we live in what kills us" any good or any other/better ideas??
i want a tattoo thats about never giving up and staying strong but i want it unique so it fits me.it'll be my second,and more than likely my last tattoo so i really want it to be me and have alot of meaning
i am a rape victim as well at 16,and i was a virgin..
the tattoo needs to be something that reminds me of how strong i am because of hard it is to deal with especially alone,because i was too afraid to tell anyone.
so if you have any ideas

I am someone I walked past a dead face even though the person was alive I saw my eyes in the mirror and cried at the sight I looked at a person I didn¹t know and I met a friend I got heads to turn when I walked past I learned a lot about myself when I lost a new friend I cried every tear in my body when I thought about love I got hit bad then got back in the ring I climbed a mountain of rocks and saw an eagle fly over- head I heard terrible things about myself when no one thought I was listening I realized I was strong when I didn¹t cry when it hurt I found out who I was when I was with someone else I thought I was lost forever when a friend found me I held a life in my hand and it was my own I was a pawn in someone else's game so I surrendered to a brook I walked the fine line between surviving and not wanting to survive I still am I am someone-

SEMPER CREDERE in cursive and bbig then in the middle of it going in and out of the letters in print is "if anthing matters then everything matters"

"Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes courage is the voice at the end of the day that says I'll try again tomorrow"
“Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, "I will try again tomorrow.”
I really like this quote Never give up is what I think its saying
He who is drowned is not troubled by the rain.

This is a good strength quote
i have on in my inner bicep, in greek: "you do not know what will happen tomorrow"

'Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it! Impossible is not a fact, Its an opinion! Impossible is not a declaration, Its a dare! Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. IMPOSSIBLE IS NOTHING!!'
i knw this is off the addidas commercial but i think this sums up a never say die attitude that we must have in life!
im 16 and im planning on getting my first tattoo soon i want something about life. i want it to be on my right shoulder blade or my left rist if you have any ideas

Thnx
while i breathe...i hope-foot
only when you are no longer living in fear, do you begin to live.- both rib cages
i have 7 tattoos n i9 want my 8th pretty soon, they all mean alot 2 me, ive got 'amicilia es prosapia' which is latin 4 'friends are family', i also have 'only god can gudge me' my 7th 1 was for my grandma who died last yr , she was my world, it takes up half my back, has angel wings n says,
'my strength , my guiding, my best friend....
ill love you forever , ill like you for always, as long as im living your baby ill be.....
forever'
my nxt 1 is goin 2 be ' miss me but let me go' for my grandad who died 11 month after her'

i love this
"Pain is temporary, Glory is eternal"
'Even the darkest hour has only 60 minutes'
'Soap is to the body
what laughter is to the soul'
im considering having this Jack Kerouac quote down my side, anyone know how if tattoos of this placement are particularly painful? 'Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The trouble-makers. The round heads in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules, and they have no respect for the status-quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify, or vilify them. But the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do'
"color outside the lines"
hayhay :) im 16 and i want to get my first tattoo. i want it to have something to do with not feeling sorry for yourself, being happy with what youve got, working hard, and/or class. also i want something to remind me of my family, i was thinking ofd having the quote "pain is inevitable but suffering is optional" with 6 roses (one for every person in my family)
i also really like this one:
"i am only one, but i am one. i cannot
do everything, but i can do something.
and i will not let what i cannot do
interfere with what i can do."
hah lemme know what you think, or if you could post some quotes or ideas that would help me out
THANKS ! xoxoxoxo

…Live as if you will die today
- When words fail...Music speaks

- No smile is more beautiful…Than one that has struggled through the tears
- Every time I try to give up…Hope whispers one more try

Here a dope ass Quote "Surrounded yet always on my own, just another face in the crowd but i stood alone"......thats for the vatos who think homies will always be there ......es puro pedo homies cuz wen it comes down to anything its all up to urself homie...
my favorite quote ; a smile cost's nothing but creates much , it happens in a flash but the memory of it last forever.
To fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already three parts dead
I like this quote but I dont get the ending already 3 parts dead (what makes up the 3 parts?)
iv got the best one and i betcha everyones gonna take it its a lil hardcore ...
" Trust in GOD, But just incase i keep one loaded "
I have one quote on my back shoulder "Alis Volat Propiis"-latin for She flies by her own wings. At some point I'd like to get either wings or a bird.
I have a female koi fish on my right arm and a chest piece of lilies and ivy.
I was looking to add a short quote inbetween the lilies like a necklace style. I thought of "Clair de lune", which means Until I find you. My lilies are for my grandmother.
Its a toss between that or Carpe Deim.
Im also a huge Cure fan, so Ive been playing around with ideas for something on my forearm and the lyric quote of "Underneath the Stars" and place stars in grey shading instead of the usual stars.
"Life's a big playground. It's a shame to stand at the gates"
"Only those who have been disappointed, can really appreciate success when it comes"
"Friends are quiet angels who lift us to our feet when our wings have trouble remembering how to fly"
"When you were born, you cried and the world rejoiced. Live your life so that when you die, the world cries and you rejoice"
"Find out who you are and do it on purpose"

im looking to get a tattoo and want it to mean the world to me. my father has struggled with alcoholism my entire life. it has effected me greatly, in the obvious negative ways but also in ways i have come to see as positive. i am the person i am because of my sick father and personally i love who i am growing to be. i am very independant as a result of my experiences as well as determined and humorous. i am looking for a very short quote (only a few words) to symbolize all i have overcome. i am the strongest person i know because of it, except for my mom of course who i am wishing will write the quote i choose to symbolize my respect and love for my mom, my hero, through the roughest time in our lives. if you have any good and short quotes about strength or other ideas i would be very grateful. thank you!

Hello everyone,
I'm 17 years old and am planning on getting my first tattoo. In my short life I have been faced with many adversities. I have persevered and am lucky enough to say that I beat the odds. I would like to get a tattoo that is meaningful in my story of perseverance in life when things were against me.
If anyone has any success, beating the odds, or rising up quotes that they could share it would be helpful.
Thanks!

WOW!!! What a great inspiration reading all those ideas and comments!
I'm about to get my first tattoo and might need a little advise.
It'll go down my side and will be a mixture out of things i wanna remember (best time i had while i was travelling in OZ), show how precious and short life is (cherry blossom) and a quote / words which make me remember to think positive and keep my head up high after struggeling life (like live life to the fullest, die living, love what you are, not to hesitate and take chances, not to grieve when life offers you dreams so far beyond of any of your expectations)
Any ideas of fitting or similar quotes?
Thanx! Much appreciated ;-)

tori of 5 weeks ago (rape victim)
im so sorry. thats my biggest fear hands down. i cant even begin to imagine what that must have been like.
im looking for a tat with a similar meaning because i too have struggled from hardship to hardship and i found one that says "Bruised, but never Broken"
to me, it means a lot more than keep on keepin on. i see it as a reflection on my life so far and also a reminder that no matter what happens, no matter who screws you over, you can overcome and grow from the experiences regardless of how horrid they are.
though it might take a while, bruises heal
i wish you the best
I am 22, and getting my first tattoo. I got pregnant at 18 and my son has changed my life so much for the better. God blessed me with him at a time when I was starting to go down a bad path.

I'm planning on getting my first tattoo really soon but I'm trying to figure out what I want between a couple of quotes, it will be on the left side of my hip, please let me know what you think!
Either:
-Carpe Diem
-I am the master of my fate, I am the captain of my soul
-Aim above morality, be not simply good, be good for something
Let me know what you think!!

Hi.. Can I have some quotes on Failing but getting up again? I need it for a tat.. thanks
Yall- if you are taking a generic quote of a website that someone else gave you its not going to be meaningful to you.. its just a quote some stranger gave you.. pick a quote that isnt a suggestion from someone else that truly has personal meaning for you. otherwise you are getting tattooed for the sake of getting a tattoo not bc it means something
This is a quote from Remember Me which I think is pretty meaningful and good for a live life quote:
“Our fingerprints don’t fade from the lives we touch.”
I'm thinking of getting either this or "Dream as if you will live forever, live as if you will die today." As a tattoo possibly around my wrist but im not sure if they will fit or if il have to either find a different location or a different quote any ideas ?? ~ maevegilligan@yahoo.co.uk

with an advanced experience,
that shall explain and overlook the old.

I could really use some help trying to find the perfect quote in English or Latin, expressing my feeling: I tend to think too much, it would be better for me if I would follow my heart instead of my brain.

I recently go a tattoo for my 18th birthday & was looking on here for some ideas for my next.
I read a lot of the post on here & thought i'd give my idea
I got my tattoo on the side of my foot it says: vie enseigne l'amour revele(in revele the first 2 e's have accento looking things above them) it means life teaches love reveals in french.
also another idea a friend of mine lost her father, & got pregnant & left in the same year. she got the open heart (like the necklace charm) on her wrist.
I have three quote tattoo's at the moment and plan on a few more to be honest, i love quotes as tattoos. i have
"who was the fool, who the wise man, beggar or king? whether poor or rich, all's the same in death."
that goes in two lines along the inner arch of my left foot, it's sexy as hell, and i think it's a pretty unique spot for a quote like that. i also have
"if the sun refused to shine"
on my right hip, and
"luctor et emergo"
in an upside down arch under my right breast. it's latin for "i struggle and emerge" and is an inspirational idea to me. i'm going to be getting
"let's conspire
to ignite
all the souls
that would die
just to
feel alive"
on my right ribcage, but i really can't decide on a good font for it, all my other's are in script fonts, but i want something differnt for this one, i'm thinking an old english font, but i also think i might like to highlight the words "ignite" "souls" "die" and "alive" perhaps by doing them in another font? any ideas? please message me!

The quote is "Love is not love / Which alters when it alteration finds" ... URGH, if you're going to suggest that someone get a Shakespearean quote tattooed on their body forever, at least suggest it properly. It's from Sonnet 116, which, in its entirety is:
"Let me not into the marriage of true minds
Admit impediments. Love is not love
Which alters when it alteration finds,
Or bends with the remover to remove.
O no! it is an ever-fixed mark
That looks on tempests and is never shaken;
It is the star to every wandering bark,
Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken.
Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks
Within his bending sickle's compass come:
Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,
But bears it out even to the edge of doom.
If this be error and upon me proved,
I never writ, nor no man ever loved."
Also, the quote is "To thine own self be true."
(This above all: to thine own self be true.)
It's from Hamlet. Polonius says this to Laertes, instructing him to be selfish and to kill Hamlet, essentially. But yes, "own self" is two words.
Dear god, learn to quote Shakespeare properly.

I want to get a one sylable word tattood down my entire body. Big black letters.
Any suggestions?
I've wanted a quote in arabic looking letters but in english on my right ribcage for a while. I know what I want to say, just have no idea on how I should phrase it. Saying, "to appreciate one's highest point, one must have gone through their lowest".

hi i went thro a really bad tym a yr back,i had a tattoo wrappin round my wrist sayin "The power behind me is far greater than the problem infront of me" i love it n everytym i feel a bit down i just look at it n think hell ye......
hi. I found your list helpful. I'm a bit confused. On the one side, I'm not so very much of a happy person, I don't fell a connection to optimistic statements. On the other hand I'm sure it's a terrible idea to tattoo depressive things on my body. So I was thinking maybe something that will kind of make me happier seeing. Something like
'wake up (V)
brush your teeth (V)
smile! (: (V)'
or
'if you are reading this it means you have no choice but to smile'
or maybe something else? I'm so confused as to what I should do, I just know I must have decorations expressing myself. Any suggestions/comments?
thanks [:

Last year I got "Trust In Destiny" tattooed on my wrist. To me, that was my strength.
And a couple weeks ago, I came up with a quote. Not sure if it would make a good tattoo, but I would still like to share it.
"Quotes are just unsang songs."
fuck the system
.. the system can be whatever you want to relate the tattoo with. the system to me is the justice system. sometimes life just isn't fair and its for reasons such as the justice system that you`ll never see an innocent family member again and guilty people are being set free everyday to continue to break the law.

Hey Guys,
Thoroughly enjoyed your quotes. Here's a couple ive foudn for different occassions. Some are a tad long, but can be manipulated and cut down.
"When you can convince people that random made up shit is true, then you have power"
"In life we all have an unspeakable secret, an irreversible regret, an unreachable dream and an unforgettable love"
" I have no fear of perfection, you'll never reach it"
"Don't wait, the time will never be just right"
"To love one's self is the beginning of a life long romance"
"I live like a I dream- alone"
For animal lovers...."until one has loved an animal, a part of one's soul remains unawakened"
"I am who I am"
"Failure teaches us, that life is but a draft, a long rehearsal for a show that will never play"
"Death is nothing, but to live defeated and inglorious is to die daily"
"Glory is fleeting but obscurity is forever"
"And ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you mad"
"I am part of all that I have met"
"Losing an illusion makes you wiser than finding a truth"
"If you think you're free, there's no escape possible"
"skin is a covering for our immortality"
"The best love affairs are those we never had"
"To live is the rarest thing in the world"
"Have the courage to live, anyone can die"
Hope some of these were of interest.
All the best!!!!

Hello everyone. I'm sixteen and I have been through alot of shit in my family. From divorce, to my dad's bitch of a girlfriend, to my dad ignoring me completely and basing his life on her, to me losing my anger problems out on alot of people I love.

What I want the most in life is to fall in love and have a family that never gives up or let go, I want to prove to my parents that love does exist and can last forever. and I was hoping all of this would give you a sum of who I am, so you could send me some good quotes or lyrics for the tattoo I plan to get. I know this email is old and cheezy, don't hate, lol. Foxy_roxy_lady_14@yahoo.com

a picture of a fancy heart and around the side of the heart the line from the poem mentioned earlier "i carry your heart with me"
this can mean different things for different people. for someon you love who is close or far away, living with you still or who has died. plus the poem (by ee cummings) is beautiful... you should check it out)

Im 18, and just about to have my first tattoo done. I always wanted something that means something to me. I didnt have the best teenage years, but i also found the people who made them better. I did bad things, drinking and taking drugs, but ultimately it made me better. These are some of the ones which i think are really good;
" being who you are is being different, and different is irreplaceable. "
"Bear and endure: This sorrow will one day prove to be for your good."
"never regret anything because at one time... it was exactly what you wanted
'don't waste your youth growing up'
These might help anyone who has learnt from their mistakes.
Love all the quotes posted so far :)

I am currently working on a full back piece. It will eventually look like a story book page... stars bordering the whole thing, with a dragon and very old medevil castle. I'll have "Once upon a time..." across the shoulders, but I'm looking for another script to go in as well. I get each piece for every semester of school i finish, the dragon representing everything I went through to get there. the castle will be the last piece, meaning i made it. any ideas on some script?
i pray the lord... my soul to keep

2. turn my grief to grace.

5. boundaries don't keep other people out they fence you in

hey everyone I have some crazy sketches for my tattoo but I need to find a good explantion/quote to go with it. tattoo stretches from both sholders into my back with lettering along my upper back, and I want it to convey the planes of conscienceness of heaven and hell that wage internally. the grace of heaven being the outer shell and the wrath of hell being the inner shell...any poets in the room? lol
I've been raped 3 times but I never accepted it at first because I was 15 the first time and didn't really understand what happened. I still struggle a lot with my feelings and stuff but I'm interested in getting a tattoo. I know the design I want: it's going to be a purple heart with a teal ribbon wrapping around it, but I want a short quote written about becoming stronger or something, but I don't know. I was going to get "Love takes courage" written, but I don't know anymore. Post any ideas you may have. Thank you.
I also don't want anything religious because I used to be religious, but I am not anymore.
i want quotes about strength and laughter such as
Laughter is my shield to protect me from those seeing my weakness
i also loveee
- laughter is the spark of the sole
any more ideas? =] x
live life, laugh often, love much.
hey guys i want to get a small quote for strength on my foot recently i have been going through a lot with an illness i have if you guys have any ideas that would be great
a tattoo i like is just two simple words Why not?
Dan,
You could get...
“Other things may change us, but we start and end with family”
Anthony Brandt
Or just part of it "we start and end with family" It's kinda like, yeah we might not always be together, but we are still bonded, and we will be again.
Home that helps :)
Tell your cousin good luck

A girl i know got a small number of stars down her arm, with each star representing a member of her family.
I think I'm going to get something similar but with "Why do we fall?" in between the stars, with the answer being "So we can learn to pick ourselves up again".
I also like the idea of having the quote in between stars as stars fall also, and if I feel sad I can answer it for myself, which is why I won't be getting the answer tattooed.
I want it on my pelvis bone, but will it stretch from pregnancy?
Time is the most important thing on this earth, Treasure every second.
"In all this chaos, we found safety in each other."
"In all this chaos, we found safety in each other."
I want to get one about. Fate, dreams, or truely living... but i want it to be extrmley short and really make you think

"No man alive knows the struggles I've survived".
"No pain is forever".
"Behind this smile is something you will never understand".
"While I breathe I hope".
"No smile is more beautiful than one that has struggled through the tears".
"Everytime I try to give up, hope whispers one more time".
"You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have".
Please help i'm getting a tattoo in a weeks time and need these phrases translating. There must be someone out there that can help.
Thanx
sarah you should never EVER get a boyfriends name on you. especially not when your sixteen. and not on your boob. if you do your prolly gonna break up in a week and look like white trash. just trying to help.
Life is a big canvas, throw all the paint on it you can.
The most beautiful things in the world are not seen nor touched. They are felt with the heart.
You never lose by loving. You always lose by holding back.
All great discoveries are made by mistake.
The greatest pleasure in life is doing what people say you cannot do.
Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow
We come to love not by finding a perfect person, but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly.
Always be a first-rate version of yourself, instead of a second-rate version of somebody else.
God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.
i just got my first tat a week ago. it says "It Gets Better". on the side of my forarm
If its not fun, why do it?
Music was my refuge. I could crawl into the space between the notes and curl my back to loneliness.
(for music lovers)
Hi guys i really want a quote about life and how unexpected it can be no matter how innocent it starts out. i want to get "humpty dumpty sat on a wall, with no fear of heights and no plans to fall." in old script on my rib cage. i'm eighteen and this would be my second tattoo. please tell me what you think or any ideas because i'm getting mixed responses about this one!.
'she is my weakness, her love is my strength'
Can anyone give me their thoughts on that please
'she is my weakness, her love is my strength'
My thoughts on that one? Whimpy, weak and pathetic.
Kind of like the "I can't exist without you" nonsense.
me and my mom have been through alot together and she gave up so much for me and my sisters . i told her she should get "for those i love , i will sacrifice" and i should get "because she loved me , i stand strong" . her symbolizes the sacrifices she has made as a mom and mine would symbolize how i have become a strong person by seeing the way she loves and sacrifices for me
This is a quote ive always liked.
Idolized or despised, either way I'm recognized!
I have dealt with alot of things in my life, from lupus to gambling addiction. i was thinking courage is being afraid but going on anyways
or
courage is not the absences of fear but the judgement that something is more important then fear? what does everyone think? please email me golfforlupus@hotmail.com
if you're going through hell.. keep going
Und der Haifisch, der hat Tränen
und die laufen vom Gesicht;
doch der Haifisch lebt im Wasser -
so die Tränen sieht man nicht.
In der Tiefe ist es einsam
und so manche Zähre fliesst
und so kommt es, dass das Wasser
in den Meeren salzig ist.
I was thinking about this. It's from a German song. It roughly means "and the shark that has tears, and they fall from it's face, but the shark lives in water so the tears man can't see. In the deep it is lonely and so many tears are shed, so it comes to be that water in the oceans is salty.".
I don't know I just really like it

"heres to the future because I'm done with the past"
a few latin ones :
semper credere - always believe
dum spiro, spero - while i breathe i hope
dona nobis pacem - grant us peace
la vita e balla - life is beautiful
Quit yourselves like men, and fight. ~I Samuel 5:9

Family is forever on the back of my neck?
Hello :),
U'm i am erika i am 18 year old and i would like to get my first tattoo. Preferably something short that incorporates strength,love and family the reason for the tattoo being my father left and my family is falling apart 5 people have died of cancer within 3 years and all i'm left with is my mother sister brother and my best friends, my girls
I was hit by a firework when I was seven and now have a large scar on my shoulder. I know it is quite a common quote but tomorrow I am getting "what does not kill me, only makes me stronger" along the outer edge of my scar on the back of my shoulder. Thankfully the shape of the scar is quite equally curved so it won't look strange.
I've wanted this quote since the accident and I think thats the most important advice when it comes to getting a tattoo. Make sure you think about it, and that it makes you feel good about why you are doing it. Don't get it done just for the sake of getting a tattoo. You'll most likely get sick of it.
truth does not become error jus because nobody believes it!!ghandi
"Capacity is limitless in Human spirit"
"Heroes are not the ones who Fight,But the ones who Endure and conquer"
"A passions Pledge is a young man/womans Edge"
"It's my life
It's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever"
I was thinking of gettin.
Real Eyes , Realise , Realise.
Which means it takes real eyes to be real and smart enough to
realize - uncover the truth, to see through
real lies - something hidden, a diversion.
Who think its stupid to get this?
Getting "Only God can judge me" is a stupid tattoo, because anyone can judge you. Now weither you let it get to you or not. Depends on you. But if you wanna waste your money on that, then go ahead.

Was having a really hard time, just helps me to remember that i am who i am today because of it.
never regret something that once made you smile
Charles-before you jump on some one elses ass about "only God can judge me" being lame- maybe you should learn to spell. It's WHETHER, not WEITHER. Now stop being a douche bag. Anyone with some form of intelligence understands what the quote means- that the only judgement that MATTERS in the end, is Gods.
i love the quote "Dream as if you'll live forever... live as if you'll die today " think it says everything about how you should live your life gonna get it on my forearm let me know what you think

Hi everyone, that took about 3 days to read all those comments (although I am on holiday in Barbados so that might be a contributing factor!).
I am a 29 yr old guy from London, UK who is looking at getting his first tattoo. I am a fairly conservative guy and due to my job as an airline pilot, I cant get anything too big/visible. I had never really thought of a tattoo before but got diagnosed with thyroid cancer just before Christmas last year - so want to get a tat on the inside of my bicep - preferably a quote in script.
Below are some of my ideas - all of which are already on this site (which is great!) and are my favourites - not too cheesy and mean something to me;
Mine the darkness: see by the path you leave behind
Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional
What lies behind us and what lies before us are small matters compared to what lies within us
And in time, this too shall pass
The brave may not live forever but the cautious do not live at all
Have the courage to live. Anyone can die
Accept what is
Every song ends, is that reason not to enjoy the music
Dream as if you'll live forever. Live as if you'll die tomorrow
No man has witnessed the struggles I've survived
Some people wonder why I do the things I do. I wonder why they don't
I'm not afraid of dying. Living is the hard part
.......
I have come this far. I will continue.
Seize today. Place no trust in tomorrow
Everyone fails but not everyone rises
All you have to decide is what best to do with the time given to you
I am who I am
I am part of all that I have met
You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have
ANYWAY. If you have any ideas/thoughts then let me know on flyguy235@hotmail.com and if you have been through ANYTHING traumatic in your life, cancer, trauma, death, rape etc then please also feel free to contact me if you need to talk - am always willing to help anywhere I can!

hi, im 17 turning 18 soon
I am looking to get my first tattoo within the next couple of months before i go away to college and univserity.
i am italian and very close with my nona, as my parents had moved away from our hometown to move into their dream home and left me with my nona to stay and finish my final year of highschool.
i became very close with her, n lately she has been very sick.
she has always cared very much for me, and has always called me her little angel. but in fact she is mine as she has always watched over me and made sure i was always happy.
i love her to death!
i was thinking of a small tattoo with angel wings, the saying "il mio angioletto" meaning my little angel and her initals...
any other ideas or comments?
emails me: laura.pellizzer@live.ca

i lost my best friend Dan in a car crash coming up two years ago so i had tattoed lyrics from his funeral song Elton John - Daniel down my ribs, but the name can easily be changed because the quote is nice and means a lot...
'Your eyes have died,
But you see more than i,
Daniel your a star,
In the face of the sky'
looks amazing in script writing!
' failure is not falling down, but refusing to get up' i have this down my spine.

i came up with this for on my rib cage:
Live without fear
Dream without limits
For even in the
Darkest place,there
Too shall be light
what do you guys think?
honestly each of these are great in their own right. what one decides is what one decides, each means something different to each perspective.
so, to all of those who criticize the lack of originality, riddle me this:
if every perspective is one and only, completely original, then would not every take on every quote above or elsewhere be completely original?
because everyones life is different everyone has different meaning and each compiles millions of ideas that arent their own. everyone does it, its impossible not to, whether one realizes it or not, through commercials, shows, songs, emotions, friends, families, or passing billboard signs, and all of those billions of different UNORIGINAL ideas combine into a single individual feeling which seperates ones own perspectives from anothers.
Live without fear
Dream without limits
For even in the

My best friend died a year ago. She came into a bad group of friends. She began with drugs, and I did't know it until it was too late. She became addicted and wouldn't listen to me or other friends at all. A little while later she died of lighter gas. It broke my heart. She used to be the most smiling and positive girl. Now I want to have a tattoo on my wrist, which reminds me of how wonderful she was, and that I miss her.
Some ideas? Please.

Here's my story. I know this sounds cliche but every guy I have been with has used and abused me. I want something that represents how I wont take shit from anyone anymore and that I am my own person and no one can change that and I do what I want. Preferably it can relate to God cuz I am religious but it doesnt have to. Maybe along the lines of "Only God can judge"

that myth is more potent than history.
I believe that dreams are more powerful than acts;
that hope always triumphs over experience;
that laughter is the only cure for grief.

Have a few ideas for my second tattoo ... choosing just one quote is hard .. but am thinking maybe:
"Laugh as much as you breathe and Love for as long as you Live" or "Hope Faith Grace". I'm thinking the second one would suit the wrist? Not sure about the first one though - any suggestions would be great
Some other quotes if anyone wants some suggestions are,
"Life is the flower for which love is the honey"
"Hope is the dream of a soul awake"
"I would rather you hate me for who I am than love me for who I am not"
"You only live once, but if you live it right, once is enough"
"Love is like the wind, I can't see but I can feel it"
"Live life at its fullest, Laugh at all the things that do not matter, Love with all that you have and more"
"We need not think alike to love alike"
"Kiss slowly, Laugh insanely, Love truly and Forgive quickly"
"Happiness is as a butterfly which, when pursued, is always beyond our grasp, but which is you will sit quietly, may alight upon you"
if love is labor she"ll slave till the end
her value is far above rubies and pearls
Thorns and stings And those such things Just make stronger Our angel wings.
"We are given this life because we are strong enough to live it."
"You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have."
I'm getting a tattoo on my back in rememberance of my grandparents, i know i'm getting a bird on each of my shoulders, but i want a quote or lyric inbetween them.i'm thinking of the lyric 'when I get where I'm going,on the far side of the sky.the first thing that I'm gonna do, is spread my wings and fly.' or, 'when i get where i'm going, don't cry for me down here'
i'm not sure what i want, but i want the quote to have meaning about life or something. any ideas?
Don't know if this has been mentioned but here's a quote from something a British soldier in Iraq
'Life is not measured by the breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away'
Two of my favorite quotes:
1)In all this chaos, we found safety.
I will never find this love again.
2) She flies with her own wings.
"Forgive, but never forget"
"A life without cause is a life without effect"
Two good short ones i came across.
Hey everyone. Im a 21 year old mother of three. My first childs "father" abused me for a year and a half. Don't judge, I was only 15. I grew up quick. I love my children with all my heart and I wouldnt take them back for my teen years. Being a mother has been a blessing in disguise. My ex abused me for a year and a half. That is alot for someone as young as I, a child myself, to have to deal with. I lived the life of a 30 year old. I thought many times of just killing myself so he couldnt hurt me anymore, but my daughter gave me the strength. 6 years later I am strong, and I have picked up my pieces and put myself back together. I am dying to have a quote put on my forearm but can't decide.
You can't break me
often pops up, but I feel as though its missing something. If anyone has ideas for me, s.a.m.w@live.ca let me know....thanks
true strength is holding yourself together when everyone else expects you to fall apart.
ive been hurt by my family my entire life. i beleive in this quote alot.
Got my latest tattoo which runs along my ribcage from my upper back to lower abdomen 3 weeks ago and I ? it-
"For if there were no night, there would be no stars."
Basically it means to me that to appreciate how wonderful life is, we must know pain and suffering. For all the bad times, there will be good times to follow. Live Life and Love Life.
These are some other quotes I've been playing with:
Hope they mean as much to you as they do to me!
Neither fire nor wind, birth nor death can erase our good deeds. - Buddha
All the world's a stage. - Shakespeare
Man is Born Free.- Rousseau
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light. -Dylan Thomas
I Shall Not Live in Vain. -Emily Dickenson
During your times of trial and suffering, when you see only one set of footprints, those were the times when I carried you in my arms.
-'Footprints', Mary Stevenson
From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.
- JRR Tolkien
Thinking about getting this when I turn 18:
"You don't know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have."
"love is the only sane answer to human existence"
I am currently serving in the US Air Force. I already have one tattoo, the great seal of the US with "made with pride in the USA" for my friend who was recently killed in Afghanistan. I want to get a quote on my inner bicep about strength and courage, because through my life I have always endured. I'm not one for pity, i just play the hand i was dealt. Anyway i was thinking about getting one of these quotes on my inner bicep
"As my darkness rises and falls I will defeat it,now into the light i shall stand"
"Today I do what others wont, so tomorrow i can do what others cant"
"i have not ceased being fearful, but i have ceased to let fear control me"
"The heaviest burdens are placed on those who can carry the weight"
Let me know your opinion on which one you think i should get. I like them all. thanks in advance.
i already have a tattoo that's celtic hearts that are interlocking for me and my mom on my spine we've had a crazy year i want to put a quote above&below the hearts something that shows not to look back and not to put trust into tomorrow... i need help with a good quote

Hmmm I sometimes think about doing a tatoo with 14 words by David Lane.
I'm looking for ideas to put together just the right quite to go along the stem of a rose tattoo I'm getting I'm fiercely independent I am also strong willed and do theatre so I would like something to deal withthose and inspire me so far I really like:
In the space between right and wrong is where you'll find me
She flys with her own set of wings
Let free spirits soar
Revel in the chaos
Maybe some woman aren't meant to be tamed
Life is not a dress rehersal
And one I made up:
This path I'm on is forged from fire, and I'm the match that set the blaze
But I'm just looking for a few more ideas so I can put together just the right quote anything along those lines would be fabulous :)

A coward dies a thousand deaths, a soldier dies but once.
im thinking of getting "Never let the fear of striking out, keep you from playing the game" down one side of my body. starting from under my bust till the begining of my leg. Also im thinking of "Keep the faith" across my neck. hope these two help you.
I am getting the quote Life like you'll die tomorrow dream like you'll live forever
These quotes have been extremely helpful and I must say very creative, but I was looking at all of these quotes and at the time I was, The Beetles song "Let It Be" came on, except it was the Across The Universe cover and I have never had a song draw me in as much as it had. So therefore I am getting Que Ce Soit(Let It Be in French) tattooed on my lower back off centered. I also really liked the quote C'est La Vie( French for that's life : that's how things happen )
I am getting a tattoo of a quote I made up. LET BE OR LET GO. The quote can mean different things to people. To me it means "Accept what is or change it". Another quote I have which I am getting done next month is TAO which means "Together as one". A good example for using this quote would be a man gets it on his left wrist, the woman gets it on her right wrist...so when they are holding hands the TAO is bonded.
Hmmmm... i've been wantin to get a quote for a tattoo for a long time now & then i found the following 2:-
'Weakness compels strength, betrayal begets blood'
OR
'Fear is not the weapon its the hand that welds it'
Which one do u guys think is better.
Personally i somehow like d 1st one d best...
WHAT SAY??
I have been having a hard time having a baby and lost one last year. Any thoughts on quotes to go on my wrist?

(he loved owls) and now i want to get a quote. i want it to be about life. my parents recently ssplit. my dad does drugs and my mom is just not understanding of anything. theyve both hit me. im just going through alot. i dont do drugs. smoke. or anything and i just want one about having the strength to push through everything and still be me.. if you have any SHORT ones please email me.. courtneylarson2012@gmail.com

i like old school kinda quotes, with the old English lingo (ex. thy) but it doesnt have to be. can anyone help me out?!?!
'God gave us two shoulders, one for my burdens and one for yours'
i am not trying to be rude here, but there is nothing i hate more than people asking for ideas. a tattoo needs to be original and your own idea. when people ask you about them you look like an idiot saying "yea someone i never met told me what to get." i have two tattoos about to get my third. the two i have are the mark of shame and "through darkness, there is light." i got them after certain milestones in my life but they just came to me. i have no remorse for them and i can honestly tell people i came up with them and they are unique to my situation. dont ask people what YOU should put on your body. create what you feel
what you guys think of 'forever young', but written in chinese? not sure where to get it tho. any other suggestions helpful as well
cheers
To 'you know my name' they are not asking "oh what tattoo should i get?' they are describing what their situations are and asking advice from people who clearly know quotes what quote would fit best for their situation. I have 2 full sleeves my back done and some on my legs all custom pieces that I've drawn myself and agree with you that any 'picture' tattoo should be custom but quotes are quotes and some people need help coming up with one that represents what they are looking for and relates to them, which is why we are all looking at this thread including yourself is it not?
My boyfriend of 3 years died in a car accident recently and I really want to get something simple, but meaningful about him or even about everyone whose helped me deal with this tragic situation. If you have any ideas please let me know..
i'm 19 and just finished high school a couple of months ago..i recently tore my MCL and lost all of my athletic scholarships except one I want a tattoo expressing how I overcome my injury and will live to fight another day any ideas??

I'm getting my first tattoo and I have thought about doing this for YEARS but have never found anything that I would want on my body for the rest of my life and I came up with this a few days ago but a part of me thinks it's kinda stupid so any ideas....
On my right inner foot I was thinking about getting Dorthy's red ruby slippers from Wizard of OZ with the quote "There is no place like home" above it.
I was thinking this because my family and I are super close and I know they will do anything for me and we have eachother backs in anything. My mother is a huge Wizard of OZ fan and I was born and raised and still do live in KS so it just kinda sums up everything family, where i am from, etc. What do you guys think??? Advice would be greatly appreciated :-)
BTW LOVE ALL THE QUOTE IDEAS-Excellent source for anybody looking for a quote for ideas

Giving up doesn't always mean you're weak.
Sometimes it just means you're stong enough to let it go.

In my life, I have had wanted nothing more than what I now am, a Marine. A single 6-letter word that speaks volumes to multitudes. Just the name, Marine, carries pride, honor and courage. Many men join for many different reasons, but they all start off with the same goal along the way, to become a Marine. To be one of the few, the proud. pride, strength when united. Every background, every creed and every color. All come together under the same promise. The promise to protect this country against all enemies, foreign and domestic. All who join have accepted this price, this calling. The price of having to leave all behind, to journey to a country where people hate you, and all you stand for. The American Dream, This dream of freedom and the right to preserve it. And who is called upon to undertake this task, the United States Marines. We rise to the call to lay down our lives. We fight and die for the freedom that some people cherish, some people spit upon and the very freedom that most people think they deserve. But who really deserves this freedom, the People or the Patriot. But how many really understand and believe that statement. How many know what it is like to sleep alone, cold, humbled and unappreciated. How many know what it is like to lose a friend or loved one who fought and died for the freedoms you were given. And how many have received a folded American flag, followed by a 21 Gun Salute. How many, we don't know. But whatever the number, they are the ones who gave so much for their Country and freedom that they lost it all. Our Nation will see our conflicts on T.V., they will see our men and women, our sons and daughters who have openly accepted the possibility of death, and they will turn the channel without a second thought. But you remember this. While you sleep at night with your parents, your wife, your children, there are always men out there awaiting the call to lay their lives
I want a tattoo quote to represent a easy going life and having to do with the surfing culture. If u have any ideas please add sum

"Death ends a life, not a relationship" one of my favorite quotes. Even when someone close to you dies, the relationship between you two will last forever. I also love "when the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace" this quote is by Jimi Hendrix

I was working on a tattoo quote and came up with "strength in pain, my soul will gain" or "my soul will gain, strength in pain" which way do you thinks best??

im thinking about getting a tatoo on my forearm, and a few things have been standing out for me.
Sic vita est - which is Latin for "Such if life"
or maybe "Carpe Diem" which is also Latin for "Seize the day"
Which one do you guys think is better?
Dare to be remarkable.
"The day that you have no fear! that is the day you are completely free"
i think is such a nice quote and means alot to me
"never give up on something you can't go a day without thinking about"
another one i think is brilliant
"Nemo Me Impunne Lacessit" Latin for, "No one provokes me with impunity" or slang would be, Nobody takes the Mickey out of me and gets away with it".
Some of my favourite all time quotes :
Be yourself, 'Cause life is too short to be anybody else
when you touch the sky, dont forget you're still rooted in the ground
In life there comes a time, where you have to start being realistic, when you need to stop giving yourself false hope about everything, cause some dreams just dont come true, and thats the way its meant to be
every choice we make, and every road we take, every interaction starts a chain reaction
i will surely be getting a few of these tattoo'ed on me one day, and im looking forward to it!
i carry your heart with me
i carry it in my heart
it'd be so cute if it was split between 2 people
say a couple or siblings or parents or even friends
especially if you're moving away
i'm going to uni soon & i really want something with my mum as she's always been there for me & i think this'd be so cute as it would always remind me she's there when i need her
I like these quotes a lot. But i went through a huge break up and lost a lot so i want ''know when to let go'' on my foot or ''forever's never'' on my foot.. just to remind me i got through it :) what do you think ?
If your words mean less than silence then say nothing at all
I've always liked that one
I love this one:
Hate the sin
Love the sinner
It'a actually a qoute of Ghandi
For every loss there is a reason
Always stay true to yourself, no matter who or what come your way
Live For Everything Die For Nothing... The Game
Any ideas message me mike_rhodes@live.ca
I was thinking of getting "virtus" on the inside of one arm and "apprime" on the inside of the other arm. It's Latin for "courage above all"
Any thoughts?
It's only after we've lost everything that we're free to do anything
Listen to me! You have to consider the possibility that God does not like you. He never wanted you. In all probability, he hates you. This is not the worst thing that can happen
The greatest pleasure in life is doing what people say you cannot do.
im gettin the quote 'love life' but seeing as im irish il get it in my native tongue...so it reads 'Shaol Grá'
i already have a celtic design on my lower back...each means something to me as my irish heritage means a lot!! :)
To :D x
Shaol grá is a literal translation which actually means 'life(noun) love(noun)'
"Everybody is going to hurt you; you just gotta find the ones worth suffering for."
"Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall, with no fear of heights and no plans to fall."
(Planning on getting this as a tattoo)
"Fuck it." - I made that up. Anyone know what that is in Latin? xD
I also made "Tumbleweed" Up too for those awkward moments.
Also, anyone got any quotes for mistakes and learning from them? Short and snappy?
Also some short, clever Latin?
E-mail me if so, I'm looking to get a tattoo above my bikini line and I'm toying whether to get my starsign or a quote. Leaning towards a quote. Starsign comes second.

i saw a girl with a tattoo on her foot that said
here's a few -
"God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference. "
"be a best friend, tell the truth, and overuse i love you. go to work, do your best, and dont outsmart your common sense. never let your prayin' knees get lazy, and love like crazy"

i want a tattoo with eminem lyrics but i dont know which one, i want it to be about my life. my life has been through abuse and hatred, and been raised by only my mother becasue my father cheated on her and left us without money.
please help, by getting this tattoo im commiting myself to start a new life a look towards a bright future. i am becomeing an actor.
please give me some ideas.
I have a tattoo on my right side that represents all of the beauty that comes out of the crazy things in my life- i love this quote n i do live by it.....
"Out of Chaos, Comes Beauty"
I believe that no matter the situation, there will be something good and beautiful that will arise from it.
I am wanting to get the quote
"In the hopes of reaching the moon men fail to see the flowers that blossom at their feet."
Along with a beautiful drawing my cousin made of a flower. I wanted to get it on my foot, but I am sure it is way too much for the foot... Does anyone else have any other ideas it may look nice to place this quote? And I still will place the flower on my foot so it kind of coincides...
I really like those quotes :
"We can build a new tomorrow, today" ( Placebo - Speak in Tongues)
"Cold water surrounds me now, and all I've got is your hands." ( Damien Rice - Cold Water )
"Everyone wants happiness, no one wants pain. But we can't make a rainbow without a little rain.."
But I think it's a bit too long. In fact, I want to express HOPE. 'Cause my life's really shit atm. I'm 18, mom's 60 and dad's 58... Mom is struggling between my dad's illness and getting money to survive. My dad got a rare illness and unfortunately, all the descendants might (will..) have it. That illness doesn't kill at all... it making you weaker and weaker, my dad's got sick at the age of 40 ( just when I was born..)and now he cant do anything by himself. He cant even go to the toilet alone, he got diapers... he cant walk, he cant even talk properly, he cant write anymore, he lost his balance... idk why he's still alive. He's all suffering, all day longs, sitting on his chair, watching stupid tv programs, asking for medicines which only make him weaker... Idk why but I dont consider him as my father. The only father I really have is my mom.
But despite of that fact, he gave me some talent to art. When he was young and healthy, he was a great artist. That part of him is the only thing I love. But every time I see him, I forget that thing and hate him to hell... No one can feel how hard is our family life but, I believe that everything will be okay...even if i get sick like him. and besides, I already make the choice of death when i'll get sick. 'cause that life my dad's living isn't life at all and there's no solution 'cause no one knows the medicine to cure that sort of rare hereditory illness. I really dont want to endure that, I already endure pain, and I know I've to endure more and more in the near future.
So I want a quote which illustrate well hope, believe in dreams, have faith, do never give up,... or something like that. I want it short but strong, I'm planning on getting it on my forearm or on my back..
Anyone can help me please ?
Keep your head held high
Your back straight
Your eyes on the horizon
Never let anyone stop you from getting there

One of my friend's really good friends Dan died a couple months ago and she got the absolute cutest tattoo for him. He was only 18 years old and she loved him dearly, they always used to listen to Slightly Stoopid together, so she got a quote from one of their songs. It says "All I really needed was a friend like you" and it's adorable. If any of your friends passed away you should think of a song or something that really reminds you of them.

You should be the one who is embarrassed. First of all, if you are going to call anybody an idiot, you should check your spelling on what you write. Secondly, who are you to judge what somebody wants to put on their body? I didn't realize they needed your permission to go ahead and do something sentimental for themselves... tool!

I really juss sat here for who knos how long reading all these quotes. I wuz in an abusive relationship. Wuz raped. Have scars from past depression and struggled wit my sexuality for a long time (I'm bisexual) now I've learned to accept myself and though I'm still dealing wit the rest ive grown strong and id like to get a quote about disz down da inside of my thigh. I hAve all many ideas idk where to start lol. Can yu guys point some out for me plz? Thanx (:
I really like this one "be who you are and say what you feel,Those who matter won't mind,and those that mind don't matter.
I would love to get a tattoo of the quote "Perhaps because her passion was insane and beautiful as sin." But I'm not sure where to get it. Seeing as I'm a girl, I don't want to get it on my side. I'm too afraid it would look terrible after child birth.
I got "Our lives begin to end the moment we become silent about the things that matter" which is a Martin Luther King Jr. quote that I slightly changed. (It's supposed to be 'day' not 'moment'". It goes from my lower stomach, around my side and almost to my spine. It's super nice :)
imagine peace.
15 and cant wait to get my first tattoo!....was thinking"i live my life in hope that one day my dreams might once again outweigh my regrets"-Lincoln Redcrow. was thinking about getting it down my ribs with a tribal border....any ideas?
does this seem abit lame to have tattoed on me?
life is like photography, we develop from the negatives?
i want somthing regarding life.
I love the quote by Buddah: "Water surrounds the lotus flower, but does not wet its petals." I am thinking of getting this on my side with a lotus flower. I take it to mean protect your health and spirituality by not indulging in unrighteous things...and in the end you will remain pure. It is short and sweet.
I also made this one up:
"Where there once was a wilted mess, transformed, a rose bloomed.
and also wrote this one:
"Like broken china, cracked and useless, locked away somewhere, hidden beneath the beautiful dishes."
I know that one is kind of depressing, but it sums up insecurities of yourself that you may be overcoming...
tylar...i think that quote is pretty cool...very unique never heard anything like it. I Like It!
"love the life you live"
"live the life you love"

I WANT TO GET A TATTOO IN MY FINGER
"carpe diem"
heyy, so i am 16, and i want to get a tattoo on my right shoulder blade. I sketch a lot of tattoos, and pictures like them, and i have drawn out a scroll/banner type thing with a heart and flowers around it and im looking for a quote to fill it with. Ive had my fair share of tough times, just like we all have. My grandma (who i was very close with) died the day after my 15th birthday, and i kinda wanted a quote about strength, and life, but also tying into her being there to help me through anything. does any one have any ideas?
life is a sleazy stranger, who looks vaguely familiar; flirting with a bimbo named disaster at the end of the bar.
the human heart is a strange vessel. love & hatred can exist side by side.
& this is love: two souls that freely meet, & have no need of proving anything.
there are two great days in a person’s life - the day we are born & the day we discover why.
there are no beautiful surfaces without a terrible depth.
i believe there are moments in your life when you have to dance like everyone is watching.
& though the waves might bring you down & though the currents might pull you under, the sky is always still right above you.
sometimes you wake up. sometimes the fall kills you. & sometimes, when you fall, you fly.
but when the strong were too weak to hurt the weak, the weak had to be strong enough to leave.
some birds aren’t meant to be caged, their feathers are just too bright (favorite, shawshank redemption)
i was born with an enormous need for affection, & a terrible need to give it. -- audrey hepburn
it takes backbone to live the life you want.
you & i were different. we came from different worlds, & yet you were the one who taught me the value of love. -- the notebook
Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one’s definition of your life.
Love is much like a wild rose, beautiful and calm, but willing to draw blood in its defense.
I’m all glued back together now. I make no apologies for how I chose to repair what you broke.
you have to make your own little pieces of magic.
Some of these are long, but you can always take certain parts you like =]
"{little boy} you remind me how so much depends on days made of now"
A beautiful line from the book little boy.
I think I'm going to get it as my next tattoo but instead of the opening words "little boy" (cos that might look awfully creepy in years to come, I'm going to have 3 swallows flying over the text to symbolise my boys. I like how swallows signify a safe retun home, and thats something I hope I can always offer my boys so it all sort of ties in nicely.
WDYT??
Anyway, I think its a moving quote even for people without kids to make the most of every day.
I have chronic daily migraines and other medical issues ( brain lessions which indicate future MS ) I'm looking for a quote having something to do with dealing with pain. Any ideas?
Hi I'm only 17 but I'm starting to plan my first tattoo when I turn 18. I've been through a lot since I was 10, with many family issues. I want a quote about strength on my foot.

"Your past is who you are, but not who you will be"
i found this poem recently and would love to have it as a tattoo but its too big, was thinking maybe just a few words of it but then it sort of loses its meaning.
Don’t stand beside my grave and weep,
For I’m not there, I do not sleep,
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond’s glint on snow,
I am the sunlight on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn’s rain.
When you awaken in morning’s hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush,
of quiet birds in circle flight,
I am soft stars that shine at night,
Don’t stand beside my grave and cry,
I am not there. I did not die
Melinda Sue Pacho
i also really like these ones from peter pan
Second star to the right and straight on till morning

a good quote for a family member passing away is :
you can shed a tear beacuse they are gone or you can smile because they have lived
Hi,
i'm not religious, but i love this quote "Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good" which is from the bible.
Also, my sister, brother and i all have ankh's tattoo'd on us, partly for our egyptian heritage and partly to link us together.
Finally, for those looking for a tattoo to honour a loved one that's no longer with us, i've always liked the idea of getting my family tree tattoo'd on my back. Afterall, everyone's is unique.
I was thinking of getting this:
passion, strength
and then one more word after strength .... any ideas? something that relates to both passion and strength
thanks!

Only in the darkness can you see the stars :)
lisa, first of all i would like to say im sorry to hear about your condition, i would definitely consider getting "in time this too shall pass" as this will remind you that you've over came it once before and this time also, you will get through it.
life is what you make it, never forget, and your past, never regret.
Beauty without vanity, strength without insolence.
Be not the slave of your own past.
Semper credere "always believe"
Every thing has it's beauty but not everyone sees it.
Beautiful torture, joyous sacrifice.
Let your dreams break the boundaries of your fears.
Go confidently in the direction of your dreams.
What lies within us, exceeds all else.
I should let you fade away but that just wouldnt be me.
Every true strength is gained through struggle.
No less than the trees and the stars.
You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem.
Never a failure, always a lesson.
Where there is no struggle, there is no strength.
Life is a succession of moments, to live each one is to succeed.
Stay far from timid. Only make moves when your heart is in it, and live by the phrase the sky is the limit.
Be not afraid of going slowly, be afraid only if standing still.
Our hopes and expectations, black holes and revelations, I just wanted to hold you in my arms.
Don't let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark. On the hopeless swamps of the not quite, the not yet, and the not at all. Do not let the hero in your soul perish, the world you desire can be won. It exists, it is real, it is possible. It is yours.

The band superchick has a lot of good quotes in their songs that have to do with stregnth & resilience.
For example, I love these lines:
"After all this has passed, I still will remain.
After I've cried my last, there'll be beauty from pain.
Though it won't be today, someday I'll hope again,
& there'll be beauty from my pain."
I have decided to get my first tatt. I have set my heart on a feather with a heart worked into it and it will go on my upper ribs. after drawing it out i have decided that i wish to put a quote over it. I want it to deal with something about perseverance, hope, etc. due to everything i have triumphed in my life. I was thinking "the truth will set you free" but i really want this tatt to mean alot. any suggestions feel free to email me at mpetit@shelbywireless.net. Thanks so much in advance!
Life can be remembered backwards, but must be lived forwards. Or... live the way you want as those who mind dont matter and those who matter dont mind. Which one should i get? Email me at ben_a_moses@hotmail.com

A journey of a thousand miles begins with one step
anyone got any ideas. i am wanting a tatt on my foot about family, don't know what quote to use but?
"never regret something youve once done, because at that moment you did exactly what you wanted."
"The first casualty of war is innocence."
"He died for us, why not live for Him"
"I love you. I am who I am because of you. You are every reason, every hope, and every dream I've ever had, and no matter what happens to us in the future, everyday we are together is the greatest day of my life. I will always be yours."
"As soon as I pray, you answer me; you encourage me by giving me strength."
"Oh yes, the past can hurt. But, you can either run from it or, learn from it."
"The mightiest of weapons is truth. And everyone knows you’re not permitted to enter a Government building with a weapon. "
"The best love is the kind that weakens the soul, that makes us reach for more, that plants fire in our hearts and brings peace to our minds. And that's what you've given me. That's what I hope to give to you forever."
"I'm scared of everything. I'm scared of what I saw. I'm scared of what I did, of who I am. And most of all... I'm scared of walking out of this room and never feeling the rest of my whole life, the way I feel when I'm with you."
"Beginnings are usually scary and endings are usually sad, but it's everything in between that makes it all worth living."
"Never tell your problems to anyone...20% don't care and the other 80% are glad you have them.
"It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose
it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been
missing until it arrives."

hey, I Need Some Help On Finding Ideas On A Tattoo About "Strength" Thats Isnt' . .. .

If you have any ideas please e-mail me,
ben-the-ninja@hotmail.co.uk
Didn't really get a chance to go through all of the quotes up here but here are a few from my personal faves collection:
On moving from the past to the future:
Scars remind us of where we've been; they don't have to direct where we're going...
What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters to what lies within us...
keep on keepin on...
its not what you achieve in life, it's what you overcome...
we should take from the past its fires and not its ashes...
on wisdom/knowledge:
knowledge speaks, but wisdom listens...
on peace:
when the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace...
on strength/forgiveness:
the weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is an attribute of the strong. Hatred can be overcome only by love...
forgiveness does not change the past. But it does enlarge the future.
no one can make you feel inferior without your consent...
i loveeeeeeeeeee all of these quotes! im having a hard time deciding on which one to get, but i have it narrowed down to about 10. wish me luck!! :)

Hi there, I have one tattoo on my right shoulder that says: Live every moment, Laugh every day, Love beyond words. I got it when I was going through a really rough patch last year and I love it, and try to live every day to the meaning of my tattoo.
My boyfriend and I are going to Australia in May for four months to backpack around, and I am looking for another tattoo idea. I am looking for something that signifies adventure, and strength and living your life to the fullest. My life is so planned out and he is teaching me so many things about just letting go and living your life to the fullest. I want to get it on my lower left back/hip kind of wrapping around but easily hidden as I am going into a teaching profession. I am going to incorporate it with an australian image, maybe a boomerang or something, but I want the words as well!
If anyone has any ideas please post them!
thx.

Im a 17 year old girl and I have two tattoos.
One on my right hip that says "Remember to forget" in my handwriting
and the other I just got on my left hip/side that is a ying yang sign with a butterfly sitting on top
They both mean so much to me.
I cant wait to get more but i just think its important to remember, a tattoo is very permanant. Think, are you going to want this when your 70 and your body isnt the way it is today? I am not against tattoos, i just think they are a big decion, one not to be taken lightly.
i want to get a tattoo on my forearm or ribs about how hard life is yet i still stand does anyone have any ideas?

mine is down my side an says, 'A Positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
I wanted to get.. 'Live for Today' running down the inside of my forearm (wrist) and then a few birds flying to represent freedom.. what does everyone think?
Also, a small black and white bow like a ring on my finger, im thinking will look cute.
And then finally, a cheryl cole inspired tat on the side of my right hand, black ink.
any pictures or further ideas or comments, please email me at alannahx@hotmail.co.uk thanks!
There's so many good quotes on here, having read through every single one I can tell anyone looking for a quote, this is the place to be! I'm getting a quote written down the left side of my body on my ribs soon and I'm trying to find the perfect one for me. I wanted something about not wasting your life as every day really is precious. I hadn't even come to this realisation until I started looking at quotes for my next tattoo a few months ago and realised.. it's true, literally any day could be your last, and if it was, looking back on that day would you be able to say, 'My last day on earth, and I spent it happy. With the people I love most around me. I didn't waste my last day on earth angry or bored, I was having fun, laughing and living, like it was my last day'. I know that if I left this world with an attitude like that, wherever I went , I would be so happy :) Whilst looking at quotes I found some that I liked and wrote them down so I hope these are helpful to someone somewhere..
- The acts of this life, are the destiny of the next.
- Fortune and Love favour the brave (good if you are in the army, marines e.t.c)
- C'est La Vie (That's life)
- Carpe Diem (Seize the day)
- Free spirits have to soar
- Nothing is more precious than this day
- We will not remember the days, we will remember the moments
I know looking through millions of quotes can be boring and tedious but its all worth it in the end.. when you find that quote that means so much to you. Good Luck everyone! :)

I've had a tattoo a month ago down my ribs sayin" never lie steal cheat or drink
But if you must lie, lie in the arms of the ones you love,if must steal, steal away from bad company, if you must cheat,cheat death, and if you must drink drink in the moments that take your breath away, I got acused of lieing and cheating in a relationship not long ago and never put a foot out of place and Iv done alot of stupid things from cheating death and I have only had people steal of me and my brother was a heavy drinker for a bit so only drink in the moment that takes your breath away if that makes sense. Wicked quotes on here!!

I love:

My favorite quote for love is "Love is giving someone the ability to hurt you but trusting them not to"
I was in a car accident when I was 19, had a drunk driver hit me head on. I was told this by one of the nurses of the hospital I spent a few weeks in. I was whiny about my condition and all my broken bones. I was upset about the tragic turn my life had taken. She said to me " This can make you bitter or better. The choice is yours" I later had that tattooed on my right side. It means the world to me, and I live by those words to this day.
My fave that a friend swears by is
"you are better than no-one and no-one is better than you"
I want a quote of strength for me and my brother. We decided to make the same tattoo. I want your own ideas. Thank You

I was in an abusive relationship for 3 years and have been out of it a year and I am just finding myself and overcoming everything and I'd like to get a tattoo symbolising the strength I have gained. I'd like it to be short and possibly with a sparrow next to it, but if the sparrow doesn't fit the quote then the sparrow will be going somewhere else. Also I am going into the RAF so it can't be anywhere that can't be covered up so any ideas on where??
Any ideas...? :)
And for everyone who is saying that you shouldn't need to be told quotes you should find them yourself so they mean something, they do mean something because people are reading the quotes and if they fit to their circumstances and feel right then thats that!

Hullo all.
I'm planning on getting many more tattoos, most of them script as writing is my life. Here are a couple I'm planning on and where they're from:
"Here, at least, we shall be free" -Satan's speech in Milton's Paradise Lost
"Burning bright" - William Wordsworth's Tyger Tyger
"Nothing but the rain" - ??
"And us, we catch the stars on fire." A. Oleander's "To Cool the Moon"
"Be the change you wish to see in the world" Ghandi
"Live free or die fighting, there is in between." A. Oleander's "To Cool the Moon"
"Wherever I go, there I am." Joseph Boyden's Through Black Spruce
Some of them don't really fit the theme of courage, strength, and adversity, but they're pretty cool nonetheless.

You could always shorten the last one to "We are born with no road map, we are given no guide. The answers in life are ours to decide."

Hi all,
I have gone through a lot of hardships in my life and was just recently raped. i would like to get some sort of tattoo with a quote about being strong, so far my only idea was "what doesnt kill you makes you stronger" Anyone else have ideas? It would be Greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
Tessa Sulkes,
Firstly, How brave.
Simply have "Courage" tattood on you.
You don't have to advertise what happened to you (I mean that in the nicest way, not cheeky), but you will know the meaning it has to you, that is all that matters.
Hope this helps.
i like that idea
ok lol i need help finding a short quote that is not corny or lame. i just want it to be something interesting that makes sense about life and stuff idk just something cool pleaseeee help if you can
hay. i wanna get a tattoo on the inside of one of my wrists,and maybe another to one side of my colarbone.
so i want them short, and to mean something to me personally.
The events i've chosen i want the quote/s to refer to are ones that have impacted me most in my life.
The main one being:
A day before i was seven years of age, my sister was born, she is physically disabled, i saw some scans of her spine less than a month ago and i was quite shocked. She can't walk, or stand without a frame. Her mental age is somewhat younger than it should be. and for the first few years of her life, she spent having to go to hospitals, and obviously my mum went with her. When i was deemed old enough to look after my sister, i did so, and have looked after her quite often, We have formed a very strong sisterly bond, and she drives me to insanity sometimes, and i'll still do anything for her if need be.
The other event being:
The usual broken hearted girl i guess...
I've had my heart 'broken' before, by other guys.
But with this guy, he hurt me, and we got back together,
even though everyone i knew, whether they knew the details or not, told me not to, or told me to kick seven shades of s*** outta him. But we are in a happy relationship now, and a few of my mates have come to consider him a mate of their own now.
and so for these events the type of quote i want would like be about.. love, effection, strength, protection, anything else anyone thinks would be appropriate?
p.s sorry about the long explanations x
hey guyz, i am getting a tattoo on my hip, of a bird. and i want a few words to go with it. probably only 3-5 words. anyone have any ideas what would go with a bird? any ideas are appreciated :) email me boyz_crazy18@hotmail.com

"Some things in life are meant to be unsaid"
"Life is simple, people make it complicated"
"Someday everything will all make perfect sense, so for now, laugh at the confusion, smile through the tears and keep reminding yourself that everything happens for a reason"
"For eveything you have missed, you have gained something else. For everything you gain, you lose something else. It is about your outlook towards life, you can either regret or rejoice"
Hope these might help some people

So I'm 16, and planning to get a few tattoos. My heritage is Scottish, but I was born in Canada, so I'm getting a thistle (flower of Scotland) on my side, and a maple leaf on my left foot. My quotes will be "In sunshine and in shade" on the outside of my right foot for my bestfriend. My other quote is going to be "God makes no mistakes" on my rib just below my boob. Its something that I have to remind myself of constantly because of self esteem issues I've dealt with in my life.
Any comments or suggestions, send me an email at _smiley@live.com :)

I'm not sure about this quote is it any good ?
about 6 or 7 years ago, I got my first tattoo which reads "memento mori" in latin it can be translated to remember you will die. This was my own little seize that day/carpe diem, and i know it's a popular tattoo, so just thought it may be a nice idea for some of you thinking of getting something like that.
i would love a tatoo in a foriegn language about faith and strength. any ideas?

Hi im going to get another tattoo and it has to be short and i want it to be about god any ideas please and thanks :))
Ok first off, I don't like hearing "I'm getting a tattoo next week but I don't know what I want." don't lie, your not getting a tattoo until you know what you want for sure, unless your an idiot that likes to just go in and pick something off the wall. Technically, this isn't a bad idea but then again, we get tattoos to be original and to express ourselves so why would we get something someone else already has? I've put a lot of thought into all my tattoos and yes, I've gotten ideas from other tattoos I've seen but I pieced them together, found my own quotes, and done plenty to make it "my own".
Now quotes are a great way to express yourself but will you feel the same 6 months or 10 years down the road? Also double check, triple check that the quotes is spelled right and grammatically correct. My friend got "whom shall I fear, whom shall I be afraid" across his chest. Later that day I sent a picture of it to my brother, an English major, who told me it was suppose to be "whom shall I be afraid, of whom shall I fear." my friend wasn't to happy.
Anyway, I suppose the point of this, before my ADD took over, make sure you know what you want before you permantely mark your body.
Btw, I'm looking for a short quote about music. Please e-mail me. Thanks guys!

When I was 14 I knew I wanted to be a midwife, so I worked hard and got my GCSEs and started A-Levels, then met my 1st ''proper'' boyfriend, the relationship wasnt too good. Was constantly put down and told ''You'll never be a midwife'', ''They won't let you anywhere near a pregnant woman let alone a labouring woman''
Stupidly I believed him. So thought when I'm done here, I will choose something else (admin work). Decided couldnt do that so I worked at my A-Levels and my grades weren't good enough for midwifery, so I stayed and done them, had an interview at a uni and was unsuccessful. Applied this year and again was unsuccessful. I had enough of him putting me down and 5 minutes before my interview, I looked at him and told him exactly what I thought. Never seen him since
I ''chose'' another career but never ever stopped thinking of midwifery.
I'm getting my tattoo next month. Just don't know where
the quote I've chosen is ''Never give up on something you can't go a day without thinking about''
Perfect

Me and my brother are looking to get matching tattoos of some sort, looking for mainly a meaningful quote of some sort. anyone have any good ideas? you can email tjphilli@mtu.edu
I have a ton of quotes, hopefully one can help someone here out:
"Those who remember the past are paralyzed by it."
"You can say anything if enough people will listen."
"The only way to find true happiness is to risk being completely cut open."
"The one you love and the one who loves you are never, ever the same person."
"Don't do what you want, do what you don't want. Do what you're trained not to want... Do the things that scare you the most."
"Yes, terrible things happen, but sometimes those terrible things - they save you"
--Those are all quotes from books by Chuck Palahnuik, here are a few others:
"Under the weight of your wings
I make believe you are all that I'll ever need"
"I also know how important it is in life not necessarily to be strong but to feel strong"
"In the absence of you, there is still me"
"If it is important to you, you'll find a way. If it isn't, you'll find an excuse."

My grandma died a few years ago and I was very close to her and miss her everyday and I wanna get a tat to remember her by. Was thinking maybe some sort of quote the means something to me, something that I can look at and always think of my grandma.

I want a tattoo about determination. I was trying to think about something that defined my life and all I can think about is never give up, never give in . I want it on my wrist though and for it to be small and simple yet a unique quotation. Any ideas??
I was an honor roll student all through grade school (including high school). When I got to a university, I screwed up: choosing alcohol, partying, the beach over my studies and recently got suspended; basically they kicked me out because I was failing too many classes. I'm determined to make something of myself and learn from my mistakes. I want a tattoo quote to symbolize the determination, perseverance, trials and tribulations, struggle, all of the emotions and frustration, to land on top. Any ideas?
If anyone gets a tattoo, I suggest thinking of your own quote. Make it original.. Not some quote that every other person has tattoed on themselves.
I'm compiling a quote database, for the tattoo shop I work at. Glad I found this site.
But first @Aaron who said people are lying: you'd be surprised how many kids book a tattoo weeks in advance without being sure what they really want. (That's why we ask deposits, many cancel)
However, we will never tattoo some one under 18, no exception. Not even if mommy brings them in.
As for quotes, script is one of my favorite things to tattoo. I did a few cool ones recently:
One guy got "You'll Never Walk Alone" (Liverpool, but made a cool tat)
I did nautical stars for a dude, with the saying "Make your own destiny. Find your own way". I think it was his own. Since nautical stars representing directions, the quote works.
Did a wrist tattoo for a girl:
Love Many.
Trust Few.
Harm None.
For a very in love husband, I did one in French. They were a lovely couple.
"En sa beauté gît ma mort et ma vie". (In her beauty resides my death and my life.)
I personally have a tattoo in Greek that translates to "death did not erase you." (in memory of my father) and one that says "Never Regret But Never Forget" which I got to remind myself that I learn valuable lessons from the mistakes I made, but not to make them again.
im looking for a quote that i can put under my cherry blossom tree tattoo.. something with meaning about my family, and my partner..but not directed at eather inperticular.. im finding it realy hard to find something that is just what im looking for... i would like it to be sweet... any ideas???

I am a 16 year old girl who has been through a lot of terrible things. My father drank a lot and ever since I was little, he has been violent to me, my mom and my sister.
We managed to get away after much drama and fighting. We all thought that the pain was over, until my sister suddenly became ill. It was a difficult time for me and my family. Now my sister has become a much better and it looks like it's going to be fine.
I really want to have a tattoo that symbolizes the strength, hope and courage that we have had to have through all this.
I only want a little short text. It Would be great if someone could help me with this. Please send mail to malinhamilton@hotmail.com if you have any ideas. Thanks!

Because i work in a typically male dominated industry (automotive) this one has been with me since i was a tween. "I don't mind living in a mans world, as long as I can be a woman in it." - Marilyn Monroe. She is my idol, my hero and this is my next tattoo.
To David whos father passed away. a friend of mine went into a flower shop one day and saw this on a stone. Her mother also passed away and plans on having this tattooed. I thought you might like this as it can easily be changed to represent your dad. I hope you enjoy it, I almost cried when i read it.

Hey, guys. I turned 18 3 months ago. I already have my first tattoo, which is the scripture "First Corinthians Thirteen" written in arabic down along my side. It isn't the whole scripture, just the title. I've been looking at Disney quotes to get as a new tattoo. I'm a child at heart and LOVE is something I hold dear to me. I've liked a few of the quotes written above. But, here are some that I've thought of for myself.. You might enjoy them, too!
"No matter how your heart is grieving, if you keep on believing, the dreams that you wish will come true."- Cinderella
"If you can dream it, you can do it."- Walt Disney
"A dream is a wish your heart makes."- Cinderella
"You think the only people who are people, are the people who look and think like you. But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger, you'll learn things you never knew you never knew."-Pocahontas
"HAKUNA MATATA- it means no worries."- Lion King

I Actually Have That Quote Tattooed On My Back In Memory Of My Nana.
I have quite a few quotes, I'll try not to repose ones I've already read:
Stones taught me to fly.
"a reminder of every mistake she hoped would save her"
"Yes, terrible things happen, but sometimes those terrible things - they save you"
"The only way to find true happiness is to risk being completely cut open."
"The one you love and the one who loves you are never, ever the same person."
"In my opinion, those who remember the past are paralyzed by it."
Remember; don't forget
In real life the prince leaves with the wrong princess.
in reality nothing is more dangerous to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future
I also know how important it is in life not necessarily to be strong but to feel strong, to measure yourself at least once
There's nothing here but what here's mine.
Just owe it to yourself to make yourself happy
In the absence of you, there is still me
"If it is important to you, you'll find a way. If it isn't, you'll find an excuse."
& that's it. Let me know if any of these help, or if you're looking for something specific. I am addicted to tattoos & am more than willing to help :)
i want to get "Dream like you'll live forever, Live like you'll die tomorrow" across the bottom of my stomach, just need peoples opinions on it? thanks

Time is all the luck you need

I think it would be pretty cool to have "Throw off the bowlines" on my shoulder.

Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." Thoughts?

With all there is, why settle for just a piece of sky? (from the movie Yentl)
These are some great quotes about strength and adversity. I wonder how long it took for those people to decide which quote to actually have tattooed on their body.
"To fear death is to limit life"

I got a tattoo a few months ago in memory of my grandmother. it's a design with the quote "one day at a time" .. it was her favorite song and it helps me remember to not worry so much about what lies ahead, because i may never get there, so instead, focus on today and who/what i have now and enjoy it.
my 4th tattoo: "no struggle, no progress"
"I'd rather die on my feet, than live on my knees."
I was raped 8 months ago and im still dealing with it to this day. and i would like a tattoo to represent wat i been thru some kind of quote to help keep me going. any ideas?
some of my faves!
damaged people are dangerous because they know they can survive
god only places the heaviest burdens on those who can carry its weight
bruised but never broken
diamonds are made under pressure
a wounded deep leaps the highest
anger dwells in the bosom of fools
once we except our limits..we go beyond them
the faster you go the shorter you are
no guts, no glory
the biggest obstacles in life, are the barriers our mind creates
:)
Just got my first tattoo on the side of my foot.
It says: Tiembla si debes pero haslo
It is spanish for 'do it trembling if you must but do it.
I absolutely love it and it gives me strength when I need it most!
'if music be the food of love, play on' it is the opening line from shakespeares play twelth night. i am getting it tattoed soon and i think it is a meaningful and timeless quote, something that i wont mature out of as i am only 18.

Any ideas?
Shoot for the moon because even if you miss you'll land among the stars.
I really like the quote 'Qué será, será.'
It means what will be, will be. I think it says that life will happen, whether you want it to or not, so embrace life, and live it to the fullest, because you never know when it's going to end.
think a good 1 is better to die on your feet than to live on your knees

I found a nice one too: "One day your life will flash before youre eyes. Make sure it's worth watching."
I have a tattoo that says "One Moment Can Change A Lifetime" on my ribs. There are 4 stars around it symbolizing my sister that was diagnosed with a cancerous brain tumor at the age of 13, my cousin that died at 21, friend that died at 20 and a miscellanious star for anyone that means something in my life. I am currently looking to find a quote for my boyfriend and I, we are "thinking" of getting matching tattoos. He is big into MMA and I don't want it too girly but I want something to show the love. If you guys could help it would be greatly appreciated.
"You cant change the world, unless you change yourself."
the demons never stray to far away; the angel in my ear my vision crystal clear. I make decisions based on my visions.
Some of you people need to harden up a bit. Lots of flowery crap about stars etc. Best quote ever is
'vis pacem para bellum ' (wish for peace prepare for war) usually with crossed swords under a dove. This, unfortunately, always has been, is now and always will be the reality of life.
'Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there's footprints on the moon'
love this.

"adversity is like a strong wind. It tears away from us all but the things that cannot be torn, so that we see ourselves as we really are." -Arthur Golden
"our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure."
- Never have regrets, because at one point everything you did in life was exactly what you wanted.
- Feelings don't die easily because we keep feeding them with memories, that's what makes it so hard to move on
- Yes I've made mistakes life didn't come with instructions
- It's what you do to me, and how it makes me feel
Love it

I am planning on getting a red tulip on my rib cage with
"And the day came when the risk to remain tight in the bud was more painful than the risk it took to bloom"
I absolutely love this quote. It has so much meaning to me.
Here's a few:
Hope is a good thing,
Maybe the best of things
And no good thing ever dies...
An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind.
Hope.
Courage.
Determination.
Thats what i live on.
Courage does not always roar.
Sometimes courage is the quiet
voice at the end of the day saying:
"I WILL TRY AGAIN TOMORROW."
I live to fight, I fight to live.
Dream as if you will live forever.
Live as if you will die today.
Yesterday is history.
Tomorrow is a mystery.
Today is a gift.
That's why they call it
"The Present."
They want me to lose,
But i'll never lose who i am.
They want me to give up,
But you'll never see me giving in.
Being dead doesnt mean i'm not alive.
I will never die.
I'm just going to heaven to live.
Sorry, the one above screwed up =.="

Ive came a long way since then and I want a quote to remind me how far ive came and what ive overcome. The trial is soon coming up as im in the process of prosecuting my abuser, and I feel as though my strength is taking steps backwards as the trial date comes closer, so I want this tattoo to remind me of the strength that I have..
if anyone has any ideas can you please email me ..

I have "like air I rise" in latin on my wrist, from Maya Angelou's poem "I Rise", a touching poem that sums alot up for me. I also have "Master of my fate, captain of my soul" from the poem Invictus below my collar line on my back, and the word Invictus on my hip. Going around the back of my right heel I have "Know thyself", and around the back of my left heel I have "Know thine enemy". I found all of these to be really powerful statements about how I feel, where I've been and how I've grown, the last two were a reminder to always be me, and to be able to recognise those who would try to bring me down.

Hello.. I am thinking about getting a tattoo quote or word in honor of my parents who have both past. I never met my mother she passed when i was a baby my father passed several years ago. I was thinking something along the lines of courage.I thought of "meet you in the heavens" or "fotaleza" which means "vigorous strength" in spanish. I'd appreciate ideas or feedback thanks!
My mother in law past away last year with cancer she was so brave and though more about her family and what they were going through than herself. I have had a tattoo saying "from caring comes courage" in memory of her.
I also lost my grandad a couple of years ago we were so close and for him I had a huge pin up girl on an anchor but dressed in a hard hat and highlighted vest as he was a bit of a ladys man when younger he was in the navy then worked on the roads under this I had the quote "it matters not how many breaths you take, only the moments that take your breath away"
Recently on holiday I had a quote for my partner which is "I love you not only for what you are, but for what I am when I am with you"
I also had a very simple quote when I was younger simply saying "love is..." alot of people dont understand this one but I decided a long time ago that love was unexplainable.
Sorry for going on and on but my partner does say I am going to end up looking like a book as I am obsessed with quote tattoos.
feedback on what I have would be lovely thanks.
I have my tattoo: breathe!!

Every Saint Has A Past, Every Sinner Has A Future
im looking for a qoute to go under my left breast on my ribcage for my little sister that is 12, i met her when she was * for the first time. i need help, any ideas??
Im looking for a longish meaninful script about family to have on my rib cage. Can anyone help or know any good scripts?
Thanks for your help :)
These are some of my favourites;
“The last camel in line walks as fast as the first”
“no man fears to kneel before a God he trusts”
“you must take action now that will move you towards your goals. Develop a sense of urgency in your life”
“Success is never final. Failure is never fatal. Courage is what counts.”
“There would be nothing to frighten you if you refused to be afraid”
“better to light a candle then to curse the darkness”
“it is better to be a failure at something you love then to be a success at something you hate”
“confidence comes not form always being right, but from not fearing to be wrong”
“determination today is success tomorrow”
awesome
i'm 17 and i got a tat a few weeks ago and it says.. if you want to get a tatto it should be something that means a lot to you. i got this because people have always thought that im lost in life and have nothing good coming in my future just because i think put side of the crowd and am an individual and i have lived by this quote for quite some time.
" not all who wander are lost"
I got this quote as a tattoo -
"Every saint has a past;
Every sinner has a future."
I liked it because I believe that everyone has a past, not everyone is perfect, and even those with a rough past can have a great future.
Quotes are great for meaningful tattoo ideas. You can also find other meaningful tattoo ideas at http://www.meaningfultattooidea.com
what about "(always) dear to dream"... ? i kinda like it...
but i'm still searching for something very short for my wrist. i want it very small and it should be a wisdom about life, but nothing like "carpe diem", that is too simple in my opinion. e.g. i love "memories last forever". does anyone know something similar that has to do with memories, or things that I have experienced in life? but not more than 10 words.
Thank you in advance! :))
Looking for quote to go inside my tattoo design. It'll look like this but better executed.
http://i242.photobucket.com/albums/ff76/_RebekahLy
I want a quote to go inside the heart and the words be made with the vines.
It to be 2 to 4 words long.
In English or Latin
And it to be about sacrifice, strength, overcoming, courage, never quitting.
I enlisted into the military and I would like the quote to somehow reflect that.
Here are some of the quotes I thought of but they weren't the right one. "Duty, Honor, Country" and "sacrificium omnium" which is Sacrifice all.
I also liked "Strength is not in my muscles but in my heart" but it was way too long, even in Latin.
I really like "Veni Vidi Vici" - I came I saw I conquered but I would like it with different words.
I don't wan them to be too gruesome or too feminine.
but please send me any ideas you think would be good even if you don't think it fits what I want.
rebekahlynn@tx.rr.com
on my right side: Determined to win
on my left side: Too stubborn to lose
above:
i got those tatted for my strong will to survive what is thrown at me. Before my mother passed away, she was known for her stubborness. I kinda got this tattoo in her memory.
Hey guys, im 19 and i dont think anyone came up with this yet so sorry if someone has and i just havent seen it but this a good quote for dreams or life "pursue your dreams and forget your wishes,
I have on my left forearm.. Dream as if you'll live forever, Live as if you'll die today, Think its a good tat tbf!
hey guys, im 18 and lookin for a really good quote to git, not sure wat kind or about wat but i came up with my own and i dont think anyone else has said it before so sorry if someone has read it somewhere else. "persue your dreams and forget you wishes, for you wishes are unfulfilled dreams" as far as i kno, i wrote that but im not 100% sure. its kinda weird after you read it a couple times and prolly aint that good but i liked it :)
on my lower back i have "if your talking behind my back your in a good position to kiss my ass
happiness is a mood not a destination
i knew for sure i wanted to get "strength" tattooed. but now i would rather get a quote meaning strength... still not too sure tho, something about why strength is so important maybe... i love eminems song 'till i collapse' i think it could be turned into meaning something like I wont give up till i collapse..............
Wow these are great...
I'm almost 21 and already have a blue awareness ribbon for child abuse on my wrist but am looking for a short quote to go with it.
I was abused for 2 to years then spent 5 years fighting the justice system to have my abuser still walk free and i just recently my 19 yr old cousin took his own life.
Despite all this and fighting my own suicidal thoughts I have found the strength to live on and experience the world for what its worth and I am looking for the perfect quote to symbolize that.
Any ideas would be great :)
I had my first tattoo 4 years ago.. It's an Italian phrase that i live by and it serves as a reminder for me everyday.. It say's " VIVERE SENZA RIMPIANTI" - and it means " LIVE WITHOUT REGRETS..

Hey all
ive been reading through alot of these quotes and i think theyre beautiful. I feel like each to their own and every one means something so special to each specific person.
Ive always vowed I would never get a tattoo unless it was something meaningful for example the passing of someone close.
Last year a fought a long hard battle with depression and I can finally say for the first time in a really long time I feel good again. I need to remember to stay strong and keep positive. Noone knows about my struggles apart from my partner, not even my parents. I am young (21) and I know that life has a long road ahead for me.
I want to get a quote on my wrists so i can see it everyday...
Ive just started searching for quotes etc... any suggestions would be so much appreciated pleeease :) !!
Email me - leasha_little@hotmail.com
Hey! Im going to turn 18 in a few days and i've really been brainstorming ideas. I've thought about belle vita or something about being yourself. any ideas?
Getting my first tattoo in two weeks! I would like a short quote on the back of my neck- something motivational. I was thinking of 'Love Life' or 'Love Freely', I will also be changing the language of it to French or Latin! Anyone have some different ideas?! Let me know!
so ive been researching and looking because i want a tattoo and it led me to this page which seems most along the lines of what i want. but i just want one or two words that describes a quote such as wisdom or serenity. i really love the quote "everything will be okat in the end. if its not okay its not the end" and "in order to be irreplaceable you must always be different" but those are two long for me i just want a simple word or two. any ideas?
also my email is courtheartsyouu@yahoo.com if anyone has ideas please email me itd be greatly appreciated!
Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there's footprints on the moon
I'm 18 and I already have one tattoo of my best friends name who had killed himself on my left peck. And now I was wondering if y'all had any ideas for a quote that could tie in with me and my best friend.
I father passed away my senior year of high school of cancer.. Im the last male to be holding my fathers last name. I help take care of my sister and mother as best as i can. this has made me into a man with strength, courage, motivation, .. I need a quote to show that ive moved forward with my life, however youve made me into who i am today and without that i wouldnt be anywhere... email mkwils312@yahoo.com.. thank you
Considering a tatto in the near future, thinking of having the lettering backwords so that when you read it in the mirror you can read it normally, like rihannas idea of the tattoo on her upper chest (left or right)
My tattoo is in cursive, down my right rib cage. (I dont recommend that area! OUCH!)
I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing......Only I will remain."
Or a shorter, rephrased version.
I have no fear, for fear is the little death that kills me over and over. Without fear, I die but once
my mom thought i should get "Har man tagit Fan i båten får man ro honom i land"
Thats Swedish for "Have you taken Satan in the boat you get row him ashore" or something, excuse my english
I am getting a tattoo but wants a quote that means deeply. I am young and have been thru so much already. I also give up time fostering kittens. I have saved around two hundred but have lost eight. Those eight feel like a thousand tho...
Any good ideas???

Thanks!
hey guys Im an 18 year old girl and a few months ago i got a tattoo that says... "It's up to me if i live or die"... not many people understand it but to me , so many peoples lives are taken from them, and they had no choice but we're here we're alive its up 2 us to live cause if we chose 2 give up and stop fighting then what are we living 4? my dad had a bad accident a few years back and we where told he wasnt gunna make it,but he did and this tattoo was also 4 him cause he didnt ask 2 have it happen he had no chose but we do, we may not always as 1 day our lives may be taken but until then its up to us not 2 give up. Im also thinking of getting a new tattoo either saying "lifes always worth the fight" (due 2 a past that haunts me daily, i only want thing 2 remind me everything will be okay if i don't give up) or im thinking of getting "my wings may be broken but I'll still fly"
what do u guys think?
My tattoo quote says "Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow."
I found it on http://www.glamquotes.com/quote/tattoo-quotes/
hey im getting a half sleeve and my biggest piece in it is going to be a valkyrie angel so like a warriors angel as im heading to the army and i would love a quote to go with this but have not found any angel qoutes that suit it if anyone knows any or a good place to look can you email me gavinmarshall22@gmail.com thanks
So a couple of months ago I was a witness to a terrible accident and saw things that not a lot of ppl see in their lives. My life has been heavily impacted by this event. I have one tattoo already, but I want to get another one to represent all that I went through and how I have overcome that and it has made me a much stronger person trying to live life to the fullest I can while I am still here. I was thinking about putting a quote inbetween two angel wings. Anyone has any suggestions? you can email them to me at a.blake13@live.com I would really appreciate the help! thankss!

I'm 23... SINGLE MOTHER, Going through the craziest point in my life. I've made some terrible decisions. I'm losing my mom ...and i feel like everything is slipping away from me. My ambitions are fading and I have a lot of addictions i'm trying to overcome. Seeing a wonderful phrase of encouragement to help me keep moving on could benefit me well i'm sure.
I'm a 23 year old single mother, who's also losing my mother to liver disease. I've made the worst decisions possible the past few years. I'm trying to overcome a lot of addictions. To have an encouraging phrase to give me daily reminder, i do think would greatly benefit me in my struggle. I work so much I have no time to read much or get me time. A miracle quote that could save me...
I'm getting for my 18th birthday this on my ribcage:

Hello all,
I have recently had my favorite Winston Churchill quote "If you're going through hell, keep going"
I found a 1942 typewriter font for it !
I also like - (not WC!) "All the world will be your enemy, Prince with a thousand enemies, and whenever they catch you they will kill you,
but first they must catch you!"
I like the following but am not sure what do you all think???
"??? ?????? ???????? ???????!"

I am thinking about getting a tattoo in memory of my grandfather and right now I just want it to be a quote of some sort, but I don't know what it should say. He really liked eagles though if that would help with any suggestions.
I want a tattoo that has "ambition" in it but has to be short because it's for my chest. Any ideas ?
i love quote tats. i will b a book by my ending days...i have: Every Saint Has A Past...Every Sinner Has a Future, i also have...Hell hath no fury like a womans scorn on my lower back, No worries i got 9 lives with of course a sexy kat! n me newest one says 'only HIS love endures'
It's not strength or courage related but I like
"You think I'm imperfect, but God doesn't make mistakes"
I've also got "Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional"
"The best way out is usually through"
It's suppose to represent the tough times I've got through and that to beat them you gave to confront it rather than shy away.
If there is a better way to phrase it I'd really appreciate an email at:
gregorjcthomson@yahoo.co.uk
Thanks

Hey,
im 16 years old and I want to get a bird tattoo with words for it, but im not sure what I want it to say. I know this sounds repetitive, but iv been through a lot in my life and i want the phrase to relate to how strong iv had to be. Also, i have always been told that I wouldn't make it through school, or any of the hard times iv faced
i would like it to say something about falling down and getting back up, or having the strength to carry on
if it helps, my mom is my life, we have been through soo much together and there are no words to describe how truly amazing she is.
Thank you soo, so much! This is really appreciated :D

I made a lot of stupid choices growing up and I learned from them and moved forward, when I saw this quote I knew it was perfect!:
"Every saint has a past and every sinner has a future"
I hope to get this or it's Spanish translation one day:
"The difficult we do immediately; the impossible takes a little longer."
i recently got a tattoo and i kind of came up with this myself, it says
Life isn't about waiting for the stop to pass but it is about learning to dance in the rain...
I had this truly inspirational script across my back as a kind of symbol for the lives we lead and the choices we all make every day - "my butt itches, I should of wiped better"
Never forget who you are, for surely the world won't. Make it your strength. Then it can never be your weakness. Armour yourself in it, and it will never be used to hurt you.
I really like this quote but its a bit long. Its from George R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire
life is a beautiful struggle

Hi all!! so I have one tattoo already on my hip but i want another one. I want a tattoo that symbolizes beauty- i have gone through life thinking i am never good enough and i want a tattoo that reassures me that i am beautiful the way i am and dont have to change anything about me to fit the typical mold (preferably not too long)
hello plz help im wanting a little tattoo thinking under my breast, iv had a tought year loosing my sister n partner :( n wanting a few words? what to write? x
i wouldn't use someone else's ideas sit and scribble down something that means something to you and then shorten it then you know its going to be original and meaningful to your past, present or future e.g mine is "to leave everything behind you is what makes the strength within you" hope this helps :)
ive got Live,Laugh,Love on my wrist and One Step at a time on my foot

Hey Everyone,
Im looking for a tattoo phrase on my left pec that resembles all of the tough times ive been through over the years, but also incorporate the amount of love i have for my family.. Looking for it to be kind of short but very powerful at the same time. Im 18 going into the navy and want something to look at to remember all they've done for me.
If any suggestions give me an email at WebsterWarri0r22@yahoo.com
-Thanks, Chris
Hi there everyone,
Hope you're all well.
May 20th of this year will mark one year clean off of drugs, and i would really like to get a tattoo to symbolise the struggles i have been through. I only want a smallish one on my wrist or arm, and i would like a quote that has something to do with being clean, freedom or beleiving in oneself.
Would really appreciate any ideas you may have,
Could you please email me on roxanne.kenton@hotmail.co.uk if you have any ideas?
Many thanks xx

@Roxanne - I sincerely congratulate you on reaching your one year anniversary of being sober! It certainly isn't an easy to do, and not everyone can achieve that milestone. I have seven years clean from my drug of choice (heroin) and I relish every moment that I am alive. If you're like me, you probably have a million books, poems, and songs that symbolize your struggle. I think it'd be cool to pick a line or lyric from one of them.
You could also check out my other hub, which speaks to the topic of sobriety in particular: http://becauseilive.hubpages.com/hub/Tattoo-Ideas-
There are some good quote ideas on that one as well. Congratulations again and good luck.
What do you think this quote:
"Make the best of everytime life"
everything I'm not made me everything I am

hi hun its andy........... live for 2day hope for 2morrow

@Manveet - what do?
Here I am, the rabbit hearted boy frozen in the lights.
I must become the Lion hearted man ready for the fight.
Im really hoping someone can help me, im looking for an inspirational quote or saying preferably in latin that I can have across my forearm (so not too long)ive just split from a long term relationship(the father of my 2 children) and found out hes moved on to someone else, needless to say im heartbroken. i want a short quote that basically means to be strong, have courage and see theres light at the end of the tunnel, something i can look at which gives me hope and the strength to carry on, any help will be really appreciated! x
"Never Count The Days, Make The Days Count" basically make the most of everything that comes your way, i need a good quote, help please
@Laurie
Harpes lycrierium obendintis
says it all
thanks for that Zed, what does it mean?
I also like the saying 'after every storm there is a rainbow' but dont think its a latin quote, but wanted something alnog those lines
I came up with...
"Intuition Guides My Soul"
it means dont have a permanent reminder of a bad time in your life. every time you look at that tattoo for the next 30 years you be taken back to the dark place your in now. you will get over the heartbreak - get a tattoo that when your happy x
true, i really dont want something that gives me strength and courage, not only because of whats happened recently but because i naturally am a very insecure person who dosent believe in myself, i'd like something that says things that is positive and i can look at and smile, not necessarily to help me get over my heartache, more to realise im strong and can do whatever i want to do x
Hi, I'm almost 16 and I'm thinking about 2 tattoos that I want.
The first one is something with my uncle; he was the greatest influence in my life and he died of lung cancer..
My second one would be something about my family and how we've stuck together no matter what. They mean everything to me and I want them to know that..
If you know any quotes, message me @

hi guys my son was born with cerebal palsy and i was looking for something to get on my arm for him? please emailme if u have any ideas messyginger@hotmail.co.uk
I need ideas or quotes that explain a hurtful and painful past, yet you overcame it and you're stronger. It needs to me meaningful. Not some quote that everyone knows. It needs to be deep. but not too long. thanks! email me @ legitmary@Hotmail.com
"The Strongest Stand Alone" or "I'd Rather Die On My Feet Then Live On My Knees" what do you think
