Just a little fable from a favorite book. Great story to tell children when they ask "Why...?"
"It is said - and it is true - that just before we are born, a cavern angel holds his finger to our mouths and whispers, 'Hush! Don't tell what you know.'
This is why we have a cleft on our upper lips, and remember nothing of where we came from."
From "Prince Ombra" - by Roderick MacLeish
