Why Tattoo Quotes Are So Popular

Quote Tattoos For Girls

Quotes have been around for ages and there is a reason why that is so. They have been able to survive through the ages because of the depth of meaning they are able to hold, the way they are able to motivate and encourage, they can serve pillars of how one can live their lives and are treasured as little pearls of wisdom. They are able to amuse, to liberate, to educate, to inspire and above all, the ones that are able to touch our heart stay with us forever.

It is for this reason that tattoo quotes have become popular choices in the tattoo arena. Looking at it from another perspective is the importance of idols in this day and age. Most people have or at least are encouraged to have a role model that they can look up to and emulate in some way, shape or form. Maybe it was the things they achieved or what they themselves represented. So having a tattoo which which is quoted by their idol, will help keep that idol alive, mentally as well as physically.

‘I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat’ is a very famous choice for a tattoo. It not only encourages you to work hard and fight till the very end but they are words spoken by one of the most charismatic leaders the world had known, Sir Winston Churchill. In fact Angelina Jolie has the date on which he said these words (13 May 1940) tattooed on her arm. So in many instances having tattoo quotes by your idol kills two birds with one stone, having words that you can live by and also keeping the memory of the person you look up to, very much alive too.

Why Choose Tattoo Quotes As Opposed To Images?

Thinking of getting inked with tattoo quotes as opposed to images? It is true that while a picture says a thousand words, a picture can also be interrupted in a thousand ways and can often leave the message you want the image to convey to be diluted, exaggerated or just the completely misinterpreted. So in many ways using tattoo quotes would allow for a clearer message to be expressed.

Also with images, many people can view them as being ‘heavier’ than a tattoo that is written. So Tattoo quotes may be the more relevant option for an individual who wants to get a tattoo which is meaningful and at the same time subtle.

The Meaning Behind Your Tattoo Quotes

Tattoo Quotes For Girls

Every tattoo should have a special meaning to the person that it is inked on. When a tattoo lacks a real meaning for its wearer, and it is there just for the sack of being there, more often than not, its wearer will look for ways of getting it removed. I have generally found this to be true more for images of tattoos than of tattoo quotes. Generally something written would have been more thought through, and would have more of a meaning attached.

Tattoo quotes are far and wide, its a matter of choosing one which strikes a cord within you, something that you are able to resonate with, something that holds true for you presently and will continue to do so in the future. For example the principles you live by, something you want to accomplish, a belief that you hold, something that will serve as a constant reminder for a given goal or mission in your life.

A tattoo in the form of letters does not necessary have to a be a famous quote told by a famous yet unknown person. Its all well and good when you are able to resonate with a particular quote but there’s nothing like creating your very own quote. For example it could be the name of the lullaby your mother used to put you to sleep with, it could be the geographical coordinates of the place your children were born at, it could be a religious scripture which has helped you though the hard ships, or even simply the names of your loved ones.

Tattoo Quotes- The Location, The Font And The Coloring

The font and the depth of the ink used all have to be considered very carefully, as the font and the depth create very different moods and convey certain emotions. For example the times new roman font, which is a relatively solid, formal font which can be used to convey something which has a lot of depth and seriousness attached. Curlz mt is which is very light, almost whimsical font and could be used to portray something sweet and melodious.
