stars that can laugh

This is Kelsey's tattoo.

I got this tattoo in memory of my grandma, who will always be my star....

"In one of the stars I shall be living. In one of them I shall be laughing. And so it will be as if all the stars were laughing, when you look at the sky at night . . . You--only you--will have stars that can laugh!"

- The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

  1. This is beautiful! I have been thinking about getting his part of the story tattooed too. It was my grandmother’s favorite book and she passed away after I read it to her for the last time so it means a lot to me.

  2. This is really beautiful…my husband and I have Little Prince Tattoos as well. Check them out if you get a chance. They are on this site as well. I have the fox, and he has the prince. They are on our forearms. His says “One sees clearly…” and mine says “Only with the heart.”
