Übersetzung - Französisch-Englisch - Vivre sans espoir, c'est comme mourir sans avoir...

I voted "red", because the notes under the request have not been taken into consideration - this phrase is much too long and involved to be turned into a tattoo for the forearm.

Try putting the phrase in the gerundive ("..ing) form and it will create a "snappier" and tatooable phrase.

Also the word "without" needs editing to remove the final "h", which is superfluous.

Living without hope, it's like dying without having loved...

I like that one pluiepoco, that's more like I would have seen it.

Or even: Living without hope is like dying without having loved

Also I forgot to add that the original sense of the phrase has not been kept in the english version.

It is without having loved, and not without having been loved.

The difference between the two is very important
