Snow Is Evidently Unpleasant

"...if he wants to elevate himself above the daily rut, he resorts to figures of speech. Since to him, snow is evidently unpleasant at times, he compares it to a woman's shimmering bosom, and as soon as he begins to tire of his wife's breasts, he likens them to shimmering snow."

Robert Musil, The Man Without Qualities (tr. S. Wilkins)
