I really like the goddess Athena. Im having trouble finding something that represents Athena that would be a good tattoo to represent my subservience for her majesties beauty.

Simple question: which do you think 'marks' a person more, getting some sort of ink pressed into their skin in some symbolic design, or the same person constantly and continuously performing the actions that best exemplify the mark they desire to live by.
Who is more noble: the person who gets a tatoo of an eagle, or the person who flies higher than anyone else, and uses their keen perception to inspire both fear and awe in others?

How about an owl? That was her animal, for wisdom.
