For one, its her tattoo and already on her, so not much point telling her its a bad idea now. Two, i'm pretty sure that line has been said and written many times before The Twilight Saga came out. And three, I am a Twilight fan "...what a stupid lamb." :) I think i’ll write what many have missed. For one, its her tattoo and already on her, so not much point telling her its a bad idea now.

This tattoo is cute. I have a "So It Goes" tattoo on my foot and I got to both as a memorial tattoo and because Slaughterhouse-Five is my favorite novel. I had no idea how popular it was, but I could care less because it means way more to me than how trendy it is. I'm sorry you love twilight but some of these people are right. It's your body and it's your lit. Do with it what you will. Twilight is awful. This tattoo is cute.

I spent ages designing a tattoo and now have the quote on myself. Its written in old english script style writing with a blue bell wrapped around it. I love it.

Yes, the reason I picked this was not only because I appreciated Twilight, and that it represents my YA librarianship as a whole, but because I think it's a great line that stands on its own and can mean something beyond its text. And Dora - you're right - my interests in literature go well beyond the requisite pop culture titles. Thank you, Marie!

I say props, Heather. I am a twilight hater, I have not read the books, and will refuse to until they offer some kind of literary challenge matched with enjoyment (I don’t, as of now, get this vibe)

It's a beautiful tattoo that means something to her. YOU don't like Twilight? Oh, that's fine... I don't either. I won't get a Twilight tattoo and neither will you and we'll both be happy. Heather loves her Twilight, and so the tattoo works for her. I have a Harry Potter quote on my shoulder that I absolutely adore, and have had to endure tons of criticism about it. I'm a lit major, work at a bookstore, and am VP of the English Club at my college... people tend to expect me to be some sort of literary snob. Well, I'm not. Heather is a Y.A. Librarian... "Oh, shouldn't she have better tastes?!? Twilight iz teh sux!!" Oh grow up! I can bandy obscure authors with the best of you and we can be hipsters and talk about our obviously superior tastes in books no one reads if that will make you feel better... or we could all just leave Heather in peace with her pretty tattoo that means something to HER. Personally, I'm willing to bet her taste in books are better than most of you are giving her credit for. Leave the lady alone. It’s a beautiful tattoo that means something to her.

Not all people who read twilight are idiots, I have my Masters degree in Biology and continue to further my pursuit of knowledge ("because all knowledge is worth having"...anyone know the reference?). Just because someone reads a book series like Twilight, you can not judge them for that. I have a Twilight tattoo that is of a diamond heart, I also have a lightening bolt from harry potter. These books have inspired me and meant something to me, as they must have to her. If its a quote that means something to you, then good for you and I hope you continue to enjoy. I personally will be at the midnight premiere of New Moon dragging my boyfriend the whole way, and I'm 24. I honestly love the Twilight series for the fact that it is entertaining.

Vampires don't want to love you and be your boyfriend; vampires will stone cold kill you and to pretend otherwise is simply reckless.

It reminds me of Aesop's Fables which I read religiously as a kid.....alright so that was a lion & a mouse & they didn't exactly fall in love but it reminds me of it in essence none the less :) I'm getting my "Twilight" tattoo soon! yay! Although, after speaking to people on LiveJournal & doing abit more research into my chosen quote, I've found that it has been quoted (not in the exact words) by many many people over hundreds of years, the concept has been recycled & recycled. And just because Twilight is NEW (tadpoledrain) & it is the piece of writing from which I've picked my tattoo doesn't give it any less personality.
