Tattoos are like marriage: it's a lifelong commitment, it hurts like hell, and the color fades over time.
~famous tattoos by Terri Guillemets
Tattoo. What a loaded word it is, rife with associations to goons, goofs, bikers, tribal warriors, carnival artists, drunken sailors and floozies.
~inspirational sayings about Tattoos quotes by Jon Anderson, Epidermal Dalis, Chicago Tribune, 6 October 1994
[A] genuine tattoo.... tells a story. I like stories and tattoos, no matter how well done, and if they don't tell a story that involves you emotionally, then they're just there for decoration, then they're not a valid tattoo. There has to be some emotional appeal or they're not, to my way of thinking, a real tattoo. It tells people what you are and what you believe in, so there's no mistakes.
~tattoos quotes by Leo, tattooist, 1993, quoted in Margo DeMello, Bodies of Inscription, 2000
Women, don't get a tattoo. That butterfly looks great on your breast when you're twenty or thirty, but when you get to seventy, it stretches into a condor.
~famous quotes about Tattoos by Billy Elmer
I want to get a tattoo of myself on my entire body, only two inches taller.
~tattoos sayings by Steven Wright
Show me a man with a tattoo and I'll show you a man with an interesting past.

~inspirational sayings about Tattoos quotes by V. Vale and Andrea Juno, Modern Primitives
Your body is a temple, but how long can you live in the same house before you redecorate?
~tattoos quotes by Author Unknown
The first purpose of clothes... was not warmth or decency, but ornament.... Among wild people, we find tattooing and painting even prior to clothes. The first spiritual want of a barbarous man is decoration; as indeed we still see among the barbarous classes in civilized countries.
~famous quotes about Clothing by Thomas Carlyle
[P]rimitive tribes were certainly convinced that the spirit, having escaped from the body at death, retained a replica of its earthly tenement. They therefore used tattoo marks as a means of identification in the next world and a passport to future happiness.
~tattoos sayings by Ronald Scutt
There is no underground community, no dark den of drunken sailors initiating themselves into manhood via cheap, ill-conceived exercises in bodily perforation; it's just a group of people who delight in using their bodies as billboards.

The notion that any one person can describe 'what really happened' is an absurdity. If ten - or a hundred - people witness an event, there will be ten - or a hundred - different versions of what took place.
~good sayings about History by David and Leigh Eddings
That which seems the height of absurdity in one generation often becomes the height of wisdom in another.
~tattoos quotes by Adlai Stevenson

When we lose twenty pounds... we may be losing the twenty best pounds we have! We may be losing the pounds that contain our genius, our humanity, our love and honesty.
~tattoos quotes by Woody Allen
You know that our breathing is the inhaling and exhaling of air. The organ that serves for this is the lungs that lie round the heart, so that the air passing through them thereby envelops the heart. Thus breathing is a natural way to the heart. And so, having collected your mind within you, lead it into the channel of breathing through which air reaches the heart and, together with this inhaled air, force your mind to descend into the heart and to remain there.
~motivational quotes about Yoga sayings by Nicephorus the Solitary
A man should never be ashamed to own he has been in the wrong, which is but saying... that he is wiser today than he was yesterday.
