Hey guys,
I want to get a tattoo of an Irish Gaelic proverb to signify my Irish heritage. The only problem is that I can't speak Gaelic and would appreciate some help

Basically I want to get the proverb ''Níl aon suáilce gan a duáilce féin'' which I think is correct for ''There is no virtue without vice itself.''
I decided I want a more authentic touch however and took a liking to the Irish font writer on this site, which translated it to the following:

Thanks for your time,

I fixed your link, which wasn't working, apparently because you had an extra space in there (I'm a moderator, so I can do that). What it takes you to is a correct version of what you started with, in the traditional
sean chló letters (which aren't used much any more, except for shop and pub signs). The translation you found is not entirely correct, though. The saying really means ''There is no virtue without its own vice.''
