Appearance
Shaddix has many tattoos. One of the first tattoos he got was when he was 21 years old, his wife's name across his left arm. "Born To Rock" is bared across the top of his chest. On his left knuckles he has "Love" and on his right knuckles he has "Hate". On the left side of his chest, he has a Queen surrounded by water, and on the right is a king surrounded by flames. Jacoby says this represents the good and evil in him. On his right arm he has a scroll which reads, "Here Lies Jacoby Dakota Shaddix" and underneath reads, "Born With Nothing, Die With Everything", which is also the name of one of the band's songs from LoveHateTragedy. His sons' names are tattooed on his wrist. On his left arm he has a house in flames, which references the band's song "Broken Home", and a coffin which references their song "Harder Than A Coffin Nail". On the back of his neck, Jacoby and his wife Kelly have the Chinese symbol for love, which he spoke about in an episode of MTV Cribs.

Famous quotes containing the word appearance:
“Hence, the less government we have, the better,—the fewer laws, and the less confided power. The antidote to this abuse of formal Government, is, the influence of private character, the growth of the Individual; the appearance of the principal to supersede the proxy; the appearance of the wise man, of whom the existing government, is, it must be owned, but a shabby imitation.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“What lies behind appearance is usually another appearance.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“You speak of poverty and dependence. Who are poor and dependent? Who are rich and independent? When was it that men agreed to respect the appearance and not the reality?”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
