(en) Stiff upper lip è una frase idiomatica inglese che significa letteralmente "labbro superiore rigido", usata per descrivere una persona che mostra forza d'animo e stoicismo di fronte alle avversità e/o esercita un grande autocontrollo nell'esprimere le proprie emozioni. La frase completa che viene comunemente usata è "keep a stiff upper lip", ossia "mantenere un labbro superiore rigido", ed è stata tradizionalmente usata per descrivere il popolo britannico come risoluto ed imperturbabile di fronte agli eventi tragici. L'espressione deriva dal fatto che, quando si è spaventati o scossi da una forte emozione, uno dei primi segnali di ciò è il proprio labbro superiore che inizia a tremare. (it)
