“See, how she leans her cheek upon her hand!O that I were a glove upon that hand,That I might touch that cheek!”
William Shakespeare
“Have you not a moist eye, a dry hand, a yellow cheek, a white beard, a decreasing leg, an increasing belly? Is not your voice broken, your wind short, your chin double, your wit single, and every part about you blasted with antiquity?”
“He shook her hand and kissed her cheek. Kathy was pumped up after that. If he had done that with the people (along Beach Boulevard), they'd be pumped up now, too.”
Perry McGee
“[Russell] Baker writes columns as a poet writes light verse-with tongue in cheek and a steady hand.”
Thomas D'Evelyn
“Fie, fie upon her!There's language in her eye, her cheek, her lip,Nay, her foot speaks; her wanton spirits look outAt every joint and motive of her body.”
“No one who has seen a baby sinking back satiated from the breast and falling asleep with flushed cheeks and a blissful smile can escape the reflection that this picture persists as a prototype of the expression of sexual satisfaction in later life.”
Sigmund Freud
“I see a lilly on thy brow, / With anguish moist and fever dew; / And on thy cheek a fading rose / Fast withereth too. I met a lady in the meads / Full beautiful, a faery's child; / Her hair was long, her foot was light, / And her eyes were wild.”
John Keats
