#9: Fortis Fortuna Juvat (Fortune Favors The Bold)

This inspirational quote tattoo reminds us not to be timid. Fortune is chance. But you need to be bold to give yourself more opportunities for fortune to smile upon you. You can't win, if you don't place a bet. A life lived without risk, without chance, is a life lived without learning what you are made of, a life filled with what ifs. Die saying "I did", not "I wish I had".
