Cleft Lip Palate

Famous quotes containing the words cleft, lip and/or palate:

    Rock of ages, cleft for me,
    Let me hide myself in thee!
    Let the water and the blood,
    From thy riven side which flowed,
    Be of sin the double cure;
    Cleanse me from its guilt and pow’r.
    Augustus Montague Toplady (1740–1778)

    Teach not thy lip such scorn, for it was made
    For kissing, lady, not for such contempt.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Lolita, light of my life, fire of my loins. My sin, my soul. Lo-lee-ta: the tip of the tongue taking a trip of three steps down the palate to tap, at three, on the teeth. Lo. Lee. Ta.
    Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
