In order to make any great art, there's a risk of spectacular failure. There is no reliable way of achieving greatness. If it's reliable, the best it can be is merely good. This is exactly why I'm not getting any permanent things done to my body. I wouldn't want something merely good, I would want greatness. In order to go for greatness, I would have to risk spending the rest of my life with some spectacular failure. That's a risk that I'm not willing to take, but I appreciate it when other people do. Your tattoo? Pretty damn great.
