Aime comme tu l’endends

This is Jennifer's tattoo:

The tattoo says "Aime comme tu l'entends," which is the French translation of "Love as thou Wilt" from Jacqueline Carey's Kushieline Series, the first book being Kushiel's Dart.

It means that love, in any form is scared.

    Maybe my french just sucks, but wouldn’t this translate “love as you heard it” not “love as you will”?
