Boraveći u švicarskim planinama pada mi na pamet:
(i) Niskotemperaturna fizika; kako priroda (elektroni) pokazuje svoje pravo lice na temperaturama bliskim apsolutnoj nuli.
(ii) Citat književnika Josifa Aleksandroviča Brodskog, kojeg se ne usudim prevesti na hrvatski:
“Still, winter is an abstract season: it is low on colors, even in Italy, and big on the imperatives of cold and brief daylight. These things train your eye on the outside with an intensity greater than that of the electric bulb availing you of your own features in the evening. If this season doesn’t necessarily quell your nerves, it still subordinates them to your instincts; beauty at low temperatures is beauty.”
(iii) Švicarska neutralnost; prokopanost Apli vojnim tunelima, skrivenim bunkerima i raketama, vojna sprema da na teren postave 2.7 milijuna vojnika, spremost za nuklearni udar.
Te tekst pjesme Branimira Štulića Kad fazani polete.
