I plan on getting my second tattoo in the near future. For some reason, I REALLY want one on the back of my neck . . but I'm not really into pictures, i like sayings. I need help thinking of a saying that is short. I was thinking about getting "This too shall pass" . . what do you guys think about that ? ? (Oh, and don't waste your time leaving me a commetn saying tattoos are ugly . . i obviously do not want your oppinion) . . but yeah anyways I just want something meaningful. I've been looking hours at song lyrics but can't find anything. Keep in mine i'm a big romantic ;] haha but - it needs to be a short qoute if I get it on my neck. Also, should I do color or black and whiite ? ?

I think you should get something that means something to you. I think you'll know when you hear it. And do you mean black and white as outlined or as in actual tat being white (cuz thats a little more painful for white and over time itll start to brown and such.) And color would jump out better i believe.

I googled "romantic quotes" and got a ton of hits with lists and lists of quotes. I'm sure you could find something that tugs at you there.
One of my favorite quotes is from Emily Dickenson, it's a little lengthy though... "The soul should always stand ajar, ready to welcome the ecstatic experience."
There are a couple of short Thoreau quotes that are nice, "There is no remedy for love but to love more." and "Rather than love, than money, than fame, give me truth".
You should take your time and find something that really speaks to who you are.
Personally, I think lettering looks best in black.

I've always kind thought that Carpe Diem was cool.
It's latin, translated means "Seize the Day" as in pure enjoyment of the pleasures of the moment without concern for the future.

my best advise is if you cant decide on a saying then dont get one, because if your not 100% sure on it why get it. but i do like the song lyric idea.
