You can't directly translate things like this (latin type phrase)

 

Best thing to do, is google, or search 'Chinese chengyu or idioms', which are often 4 characters. Many translate to English situations and can have huge meaning in only 4 characters. 

 

Also, if getting a Chinese character tattoo, don't just go to the local street tattooist. Look for one who is either Chinese, or knows about Chinese writing. Otherwise you'll end up on youtube spoof videos of crap tattoos! haha
