Do you have a literary tattoo? I’d love to feature it!
Just send me an email with a picture and story behind it.
I came across this wonderful tattoo via Flickr.com. I love the simple font and the placement is perfect. Those of you who have been lucky enough to have read Beautiful Darkness will understand why this stood out to me 
It is the last lines of T.S. Eliot’s “The Hollow Men”.

Please let me know so I can feature you!
Poignant, amazing!
@ Missie : “poignant” that’s the word I was looking for earlier
OMG!!1! A T.S. Eliot tattoo! The only thing more awesome than that would be a Dante tattoo.
Actually, I would like a t-shirt with an exasperated Dante and the words, “You Illiterate Fool – Hell IS Frozen Over!”
I really like T.S. Eliot. One of my English classes spent a lot of time studying him last semester. And you bringing up Beautiful Creatures makes me want to re-read it (and get my hands on Beautiful Darkness, of course)!
That is an awesome quote. It has been used in so many movies, other books, and in general life. What a great choice for a tat.
@ EL Fay : HAHAHAHAH If you ever come across one of those shirts, please let me know!!
@ Natalie : I wish I would have had the time to reread the whole first book before the second. I have no idea how I’m going to find time to reread them all by the time the fourth book comes out lol
@ Felicia : It really is
