    Quote tattoo, yes or no?
    I want "there's beauty in the breakdown" tattooed on my left forearm, but my boyfriend said it sounds like a cheesy, boy band song title.
    To me it means that no matter how bad a situation is, something good has to come out of it.
    Basically I just want some other opinions before I get it on my body forever.
    Is it too cheesy?
    Can you give me some other short(ish) quotes that have the same basic idea?

    You asked for opinions so... I vote that the quote is cheesy. But then again no matter what quote you suggested I would think it cheesy. Sorry, but you asked for opinions.

    Will you want this on your arm when you are 45 or 72 or 93? I vote cheesy.

    To be honest after 40 I'm probably not going to like my body anyway so I'm not as worried about regretting

    Your body at 40 will be fine if you take care of it now. Your body at 83 may not be quite what you want.
