New inking: Miley Cyrus debuted her new tattoo on her left forearm yesterday - with the inking revealed to be a quote from President Theodore Roosevelt

Who knew she was so political! The quote is taken from a speech he made in 1910

The tattoo, which features on 19-year-old Miley's left forearm, reads: 'So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat.'
The quote is taken from Roosevelt's speech which he made at the the Sorbonne, Paris, on April 23rd 1910.
The full speech reads: 'It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better.

'The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat.'
Miley's debut of the new inking came as she also changed her Twitter profile to feature a cute new picture of herself with fiancé Liam Hemsworth.

Cyrus divorced his first wife Cindy Smith before marrying Miley's mother Leticia 18 years ago, but the pair have had their ups and downs and almost divorced in 2010 before dropping the suit last year.
