Miley Cyrus Gets A New Tattoo, Has Teddy Roosevelt Quote Inked On Arm


Miley Cyrus just got a new tattoo. The former Disney star, who was recently engaged to Hunger Games star Liam Hemsworth, had a Teddy Roosevelt quote inked on her left forearm.

According to the Daily Mail, the tattoo reads:

“So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat.”

The quote comes from a speech that Roosevelt made at the Sorbonne, Paris, on April 23rd 1910. In his speech, Roosevelt urges people not to be spectators to life, but instead, to be “the man in the arena.

Roosevelt said:

“It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat.”

Are you a fan of Miley Cyrus? Do you like her new tattoo? Whether you do or don’t, I think we can all agree that it’s a bit classier than Jwoww’s new dragon tattoo.

The 19-year-old star has never shied away from philosophy or lofty quotes. Her Twitter feed is full of wisdom pilfered from great minds. Cyrus has posted quotes from sci-fi writer Robert Heinlein and author H. Jackson Brown Jr.

Cyrus writes:
