Writing on the guitar

[mindtool]

I'm looking for something to write on the guitar.  something short, profound, and inspirational.  maybe even just cool.  for example, Tom Morello's "Soul Power", "Arm the Homeless", or "Whatever it Takes".
If it makes any difference, it's going to be a white strat body with ALL black hardware.
Does anybody have any ideas?

so far i've come up with, "Live Free", but i don't think it's moving enough.

How about "The True North - Proud and Free"

I think if you don't know what you want to write, you shouldn't write anything.  Like they say if you don't know what you want to get a tattoo of, you shouldn't get one at all.

well i don't want to say that *i'm proud and free.  i want it to move others.
like, "fight for freedom" or something.

i hope i'll know when it comes.
as of now, i'm not writing anything.  but given enough input, i may find something that really inspires me. and then i'll want to spread that message.

plus new paint is way cheaper than tattoo removal ;-)

Seriously. I think, just on principle, you should be on your own for this one, mindtool.

this is just inspiration.  getting a bunch of quotes in my head.  the final product will be my own.

If you write "America Love it or Leave It" on your guitar, I will cry.
