I just really love Pablo Neruda and I thought this would be the perfect quote
“From the tip of his wand burst the silver doe: She landed on the office floor, bounded once across the office and soared out of the window. Dumbledore watched her fly away, and as her silvery glow faded he turned back to Snape, and his eyes were full of tears.
“After all this time?”
“Always,” said Snape” - J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

Este es mi sexto tatuaje. Es un verso del poema “A quien está leyéndome” de Jorge Luis Borges (mi autor favorito).
“So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.”
- F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby
We can only be said to be alive in those moments when our hearts are conscious of our treasures.

My Kurt Vonnegut asterisk. I wanted my first tattoo to be small to know what it felt like before bigger ones. This will always remind me to keep the child in me alive.
“To give an idea of the maturity of my illustrations for this book, here is my picture of an asshole.”
(My mother doesn’t know it’s an asshole, she just thinks it’s an asterisk. The perfect disguise!)
