translation for a tattoo, any help is much appreciated :)

Post by chaosmonroe »

i'd like to get a tattoo with the phrase "to thine own self be true" which is from the Shakespeare play Hamlet. it means be true to yourself, to honor yourself, to know yourself and be honest with yourself. its a little confusing i know :)

this has very deep meaning for me while i'm in a troubled time in my life, and i'd like to have it translated into a language that looks very pretty, and one that most people wouldnt know what it meant from seeing it so that i could keep its meaning private to me.

all languages are welcome, and any help is very much appreciated
thank you kindly for your time and effort in my quest!

in Hungarian: légy hű magadhoz! (in case you find the double acute accent ű is pretty :))
