Hey guys, I'm at a loss for words so I'm looking to you for a little bit of help.
I really want to get a tattoo of a quote, but not just any quote. Its going to be written in binary code. Don't know what binary is?
In a fixed-width binary code, each letter, digit, or other character, is represented by a sequence of bits of the same length, usually indicated in code tables by the octal, decimal or hexadecimal notation for the value of that sequence of bits interpreted as a binary number.
For representing texts in the Latin alphabet often a fixed width 8-bit code is used. The ISO 8859-1 character code uses 8 bits for each character e.g. "R" is "01010010" and "b" is "01100010"; the block of 8 bits is called a byte; it extended the earlier ASCII code, based on the version of the Latin alphabet used for English, which uses 7 bits to represent 128 characters (0–127). - Wikipedia
But anyways, I'm looking for a clever, profound, or inspiring quote that is between 5 and 15 words in length. I don't want the tattoo to be incredibly large so keep the words short and sweet. Since it is going to be on my body for the rest of my life, it needs to be powerful and not pointless, so really give me something good.
Keep in mind that every letter equals 8 numbers! Show me what you've got. :]
And yes I know I'm a nerd.
