From paper & pen to ink & skin

I have always liked tattoos, but I've never been able to imagine getting one myself. UNTIL NOW! That's right, I'm talking literary tattoos here. I first got into the idea after seeing a post about them on the lovely Miss Mixie's blog. Click here to see! Anywho, book-based tattoos are just beautiful. It's just a pretty thought: taking a beautiful book that moves or inspires you, and making it a part of your person...

So without further ado, here are some great tattoos that I've gathered from various corners of the interwebzzz:

Lemony Snicket! I have to say I never got totally into "A Series of Unfortunate Events", but I still think this quote and this tattoo are really beautiful.

From one of the best trilogies of five books EVER! I cannot express how much I adore these tattoos. Someday... I may quite possibly have to steal this idea.

From Fahrenheit 451!! Cool, right?

Harry Potter <3  This is the moment when Snape shows Dumbledore his doe patronus, proving that he still loves Lily. Dumbledore says, "After all this time?" and Snape answers, "Always." It's such a sad and beautiful moment.. And a great idea for a tattoo.

Lolita, one of my favorite books of all time! But I have to say, I really don't like the execution... It's very awkwardly placed. 

Slaughterhouse Five.

Alice and Wonderland! A great book for this kind of thing, but a little overdone...

Soooo yeah! I hope you liked the ink. I do. :) I have to admit... for the first time in my life I sort of want to get a tattoo... Hmmm... But what book would I quote? 

Anybody have any good ideas?
