Dominic Haakon Myrtved Purcell is a well-known British-Australian actor. He is most recognized for his roles as Lincoln Burrows in Fox’s Prison Break, Mick Rory / Heat Wave in The C.W.’s The Flash, Legends of Tomorrow, Drake / Dracula in Blade: Trinity, etc. Many of us would know how severely he was injured in 2016 when a misplaced iron rod used in the Prison Break season 5 set piece fell on his head. It was a nightmare for all of us. However, he recovered well and came back stronger. Talking about his body, Dominic has got some interesting tattoos that feature his fit body. This article gives an insight into each piece that covers his body from top to bottom.
1. Right Arm Writing
Tattoo: “Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try again. Fail again. Fail better.” On his right forearm, there is a tattoo of this line.
This tattoo is inspired by a famous quote named “Fail Better” by the famous Irish novelist Samuel Beckett, which Dominic has tattooed on his bicep. It expresses the essential idea that we may choose our relationship with failure rather than constantly being negatively influenced by the threat of failure. It is always better to keep trying, know our capabilities, and do the best until we achieve the best.
The statement “fail better” was first published in Samuel Beckett’s short narrative work Worstward Ho!
2. ‘Life is Forever’ Tattoo
Tattoo: On his left wrist, Dominic has got a tattoo wrapped around his left hand that says, ‘Life is Forever.’
3. Quote on Arm
Tattoo: On his left forearm, Dominic has got some more lines tattooed that can be read as, ‘Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more.’
The famous lines were first time used by King Henry to urge his warriors to make a quick and courageous attack on the walls of Harfleur (a group of people living together and sharing possessions in France) through the cracks.
“Once again unto the breach, my friends, once more is also part of Shakespeare’s Henry V’s second most famous speech, following Henry’s renowned Crispin’s Day address.
The lines directly mean “let us try one more time” or “try again.”
