So I need help with a witty turtles quote.
Its for a tattoo.
All I've got so far is "Whatever shell be, Shell be"
But I'm not 100% happy with it, I'm open to any suggestions.

I don't think a pun makes a good tattoo, personally. I'd just run with a classic like "Turtle Power" or something to that effect.

Oh I got another one.
"Cricket? Nobody understands cricket! You gotta know what a CRUMPET is to understand cricket!"

or if you want something classic go with "COWABUNGA!"

You did read that this is for a tattoo, right? Who in their right mind would get that?

:tlol: i wasnt really serious... it would be a pretty stupid tattoo.... he asked for a QUOTE not something "classic" (aka cliche)

So is the tattoo just a quote or is there going to be some extra art with it?

Ex. If you have a tat of Casey Jones... you can have a quote like, "I'll never call golf a dull game again."

for that matter you could just get a Purple Dragon tattoo :tlol:

Turtle Power is a quote, whether or not you think it's cliche.. A quote from nearly every bit of TMNT media to date, no less. That's not to say it's original, but my point stands.

I think its considered more of a Catch Phrase than a quote ,but whatever I guess thats the same thing.

P.S. Turtle Power!

Sorry I should've been more specific.
Yeh there is artwork its a sketch of Mikey done in a traditional tattoo style (similar to this but obviously turtle themed http://www.deviantart.com/art/Tattoo-Stormtrooper-313892331 ) with two mousers instead of roses and I want a turtle style pun to go with it.
Something short and sweet.:twink:

If I were to get a tattoo with that kind of design I'd have it say "Give 'em shell", I think.

I seriously love that! So simple it's perfect. :tgrin:
Thanks guys, If you can think of anymore I'd still be interested in hearing them.

The Star Wars tattoo is really super cool, but I would probably leave the roses instead of mousers since it seems they would match a lot better with the style of that tattoo.

How about something like "Pizza Power!"...or maybe 'Turtles Fight With Honor!"
