For some reason seeing all these tattoos surprised me. It brings a whole new level of commitment to reading books and loving literature:

I've often thought about getting a tattoo but never found a design which appealed 100%, that I knew I'd be happy with and never tire of. What about you? If you were to get a literary tattoo, what would you get? Or maybe you already have one... go on, do tell.

I already have a tattoo, I'm not too sure its the best choice ive made. I always think theres something on my wrist. I had a fairy designed, with some magical dot type of things going around on my right arm, starting from the wrist and up. It's a nice size, my next one would be a literary one. If you do decide to get one, just please do make sure you actually want it! & ensure that its meaningful to you, like my fairy represents ''inner child'' Something to remind myself to be a little more relaxed and have fun every now and again!
I have considered getting a tattoo, only I decided against it.
Not because there's pain (needles) involved, but mainly because I'll grow old and then it simply won't look so cool.
But, I have entertained the idea and I can't find one that I like much and I also can't decide on a spot.
As far as literary quotes are concerned, I would probably have gone with a quote from Frank Herbert's Dune:
"A beginning is the time for taking the most delicate care that the balances are correct."
I love that one...
