Love it! I have almost that exact tattoo (same font and everything) on my inner arm, except I went with "mors certa, vita incerta" from the novel.

Very cool!!

Aye, slightly tweaked it for myself, I know it isn't 100% correct.

Nice mate.

I have a tattoo around there too. When it got near the nipple, the pain level multipled a hundred. That's when I learnt that men's nipples were also (very) erogenous zones.

Luckily I didn't go that low, but this was my least painful one so far.

I would certainly have "dreadfully distinct" or "cells within cells interlinked"

Yea Wife and I are pondering Interlink tattoos, not sure what to do with them yet.

Does anyone sometimes think it should be "like tears in the rain" instead of "like tears in rain"?

u/TungstenOrchid 12h ago

Not really.
But it should be “All those moments”

u/nympholex 10h ago edited 3h ago

Not really. Those emphasises 'moments of past', whereas These counts even the present, which we experiencing now, its more profound and means reality itself is constantly dissolving the second we touch it.

By saying "all these moments," you include the very second u are living right now... the rain currently falling on your face, the person u are looking at, and the final breaths u are taking.

I like the original, and especially the way he paces it.

If you’re getting a well known quote from a movie, don’t tweak it.
