Angelina has said that all the tattoos she possesses have a special meaning.
She currently has 11:
1) "Quod me nutrit me destruit" (Latin for "What nourishes me also destroys me") several inches below her navel
2) a large prayer for her son Maddox on her left shoulder which covers up the Chinese "death" tattoo
3) a large Asian tiger on her back
4) a dragon under the tiger
5) two pointy black tribals on the lower parts of her back
6) "Know Your Rights" just under her neck between her shoulders
7) a tilted Latin cross on the lower left of her abdomen
8) "A prayer for the wild at heart, kept in cages" (Tennessee Williams) on her left forearm
9) XIII (number 13 in Roman numerals) on her left forearm
10) Arabic for "strength of will" on her right forearm
11) the letter "H" (for her brother James Haven) on the inside of her left wrist
Note: she also has several lasered/covered ones, including a faintly seen dragon on her left arm...

oh, and i almost forgot the latest one!
here's #12 (it's tattoed right over where Billy Bob Thornton’s name used to be, and just above the half-lasered dragon one):
it reads:
N11º 33’ 0” E104º 51’ 00”
N09º 02’ 00” E038º 45’ 00”
They’re the latitude and longitude coordinates for Cambodia (son Maddox’s birthplace) and Ethiopia (daughter Zahara’s birthplace).

While I do like the idea of the latitude and longitude coordinates, I don't think it's a good idea in the long run considering how many children she plans to adopt. Angelina's going to end up looking like a sailor if she gets her arm full of those things.
Last time you asked this question, I said my favorite was #3, the Maddox tattoo, but I think she should get rid of that one now so she doesn't make the other kids jealous when they're older.
So I'm going to have to say that #6, the "know your rights" tattoo, is now my fav because it symbolizes her UN work. I think that's a great thing because she has helped so many people.

I love all of her tattoos. I love the idea that they all have a meaning and are personal to her. Although the tiger on her back and the prayer on her left shoulder are great tattoos, my favorite is of her newest one of the latitudes and longitudes for Cambodia and Ethiopia (where she adopted her two oldest children, Maddox and Zahara). It is very personal and sweet.
Plus, I think its great that she can also get all dressed up and look gorgeous with these tattoos.

I Love all of her tattoos ... But I have to go for the tiger in her back and the Tennessee Williams quote :"A Prayer for the wild at heart, kept in cages."

Doesn't she also have the latitude and longitude of Ethiopia and Cambodia on an upper arm? I think that is very special.

Personally, I'm not crazy about tattoos and wouldn't get one. If you're gonna get a tattoo, why get so many? My favorite one of hers is the strength of will on her right forearm if I had to choose.

I find her tribal tattoos (5) the most aesthetically pleasing, simple & well positioned on the body.

I think tattoos are sweet especially when they have some meaning behind them, my favorite is the first one, but I'm interested in the significance behind # 9.

While I don' t have any tattoos (too chicken to get one), I think she has the right to do what she wants with her body, as long as the tattoos aren't offensive to anyone.
