Powerful Quotes become Powerful Tattoos

Picture quotes have become very popular online as away of sharing ideas and beliefs about life. Some of these quotes have had such a powerful effect on people’s lives that they’ve been inspired to have the quotes tattooed on themselves. Whether it is a quote from a noteworthy celebrity, author or politician, these words have the power to change the way people think and behave.

One thing to watch out for with text tattoos is spelling – if you’re going to get a tattoo of a famous quote or saying, make sure you have it word perfect, and check the stencil that your tattoo artist is using before you let the needle touch your skin. Quote tattoos don’t necessarily need to be simple letters on skin. They can be beautifully designed typographical masterpieces or they can be accompanied by a poignant image or symbol that adds to the meaning of the quote.
