i watched this youtube video quite a while ago. it's a scene from gilmore girls and i don't even watch the show. i don't even know how i got to that video, actually i guess that's the great thing about the internet.. the more you click, the more you find things. then again, this is not always the case. sometimes you might end up getting rubbish for clicking on way too many things.
anyways, if you know of any nice sayings/quotes/words of wisdom in another language, don't be shy to leave a comment. i'd love to know and learn about them. but of course, remember to translate it for me as well :)

ps. just in case someone out there is wondering, the nail polish i am wearing in the above photo is called my private jet by opi. this will save me answering the question later. also, i really like that flower pictured. so small and cute. it's like a dandelion but not as fragile.

haha, i saw the quote and thought, hey, that's from gilmore girls (i'm addicted to this series, seriously). funny. and i like your nail polish!
There are a lot of saying in my language. :D
I like that you picked a latin quote,it's a trully nice one.
That flower is beautiful,and i love your nail polish.I think i have said it before.
I’ve recently crossed paths with your blog which I’m beginning to love more and more.
I’ll leave a quote by Alberto Caeiro, one of Fernando Pessoa’s heteronyms. Fernando Pessoa is one of the most incredible Portuguese authors and my personal favourite:
"Porque eu sou do tamanho do que vejo
E não do tamanho da minha altura."
This roughly translates into “Because I’m the size of what I see, not the size of my own height”.
You can be so much bigger, so much more than you appear to be…
I love the phrase, the nail polish color, and your blog! :D
stunning nail color!
I ♥ that color.
And the flower is cute.

I love sayings in latin! That's what I find very interesting when studying law, there's latin everywhere!
oh my god, that phrase took me to the time when i watched Gilmore Girls, i remember it changed my mind, and then i kinda forgot about it.
thank you so much for the reminder :)
That's a great color, very unexpected for Spring, but it fits.
I love your blog! I would be sooo happy if you ever started making prints of your work. I would buy a lot(:
"Carpe diem"
That means "Seize the day". Hope to see a good doodle done by you soon :)

i agree with Carla above, this quote brought me back to my Gilmore days. good quote. in omnia paratus. thanks for the reminder!
That's amazing! Thank you so much for putting my favourite phrase into a doodle- have always considered getting it tattooed on my wrist, but must admit it look better doodled!
"Tomorrow is another day" - heard that in the latest episode of "grey's anatomy". so true :)
Si sta come
d'autunno
sugli alberi
le foglie
-Giuseppe Ungaretti
it's italian, it is actually a poem and it means(literally):we're staying like in autumn on trees the leaves. and it means that live is precarious,fragile. like leaves in autumn.
Since I study latin: Dum Spiro Spero (I hope therefore I live)
I just wanted to let you know that you're nail polish colors have inspired me. I just bought OPI "You Don't Know Jacques!". I love those kind of colors.
Oh that is beautiful! I know nothing but these foreign quotes are inspiring me!
i love this quote... i used to wacthed gilmore girls and i love that show!!
happy weekend
I have that polish and love it. ;)
Just found your blog from stumbleupon.com, love it and have a latin quote...
"si vis amari, ama" "If you wish to be loved, love"
I have always loved that quote and I feel like it goes well with the type of posts you have.
