Dakota Johnson’s “Acta Non Verba” Arm Tattoo The Latin phrase "Acta Non Verba" is inscribed on the inside of Johnson's left bicep, which translates to "actions, not words." In a 2021 appearance on "The Late Late Show with James Corden," she shared that it was her very first tattoo, which she now has second thoughts about due to its too-on-the-nose quality.
