“And all the guests declared they could not stand to see any more snow, it disgusted them, summer alone had more than satisfied them in that regard, nothing but masses of snow, day in, day out, mounds of snow, whole slopes of snow-it was more than any human being could stand, deadly to both mind and spirit. And they put on sunglasses, tinted green, yellow, or red-to protect their eyes, to be sure, but more to protect their hearts.”
Thomas Mann “The Magic Mountain”, 1924
