Irish language tattoo

SuperGlen27 · 2013-05-06 13:50:10

I have decided I am going to get an irish language tattoo. I have narrowed it down to 2 choices. "united we stand" or "You can only be brave when you are afraid". Can someone translate them both? Not looking for direct word translations, etc., more so the general sentiment. agus ta gaeilge agam, ach ta se ag imigh uaim.

"Ní neart go cur le chéile" is the Irish equivalent of phrases such as "united we stand" or "there's strength in numbers."

"Níor chaill fear an mhisnigh riamh é" is one about courage, essentially saying "a man of courage never lost it".
