20 Inspirational Quote Tattoos

Stories of Trials, Tribulations and Triumphs Told in Ink

They say that tattoos tell the story of the person wearing them. Some individuals get portraits of someone they adore, while others get symbols that remind them of a poignant moment in their lives. However, others take a more literal approach with their ink by getting actual words to tell their life story.

Quote tattoos are one of the most common types of tattoos seen amongst the tattooed masses. Whether it's a quote from a famous author, musician, poet, a self-made quote, or a line or passage from religious works, people often get quote tattoos to tell the stories of their life struggles, their feats, and as a reminder that after the rain always comes the sun. Regardless of the motive behind the phrase inked on their skins, the following quote tattoos will both inspire you and possibly motivate you to follow suit and get your own quote tattoo.
