(from Dr. Faustus by Thomas Mann)
". . . The stagnation of his impulse to create was accompanied though not caused by a new low-water man in his physical state: severe attacks of migraine confined him to darkness; catarrh of the stomach, bronchial tubes, and throat attacked him by turns, particularly during the winter of 1926, and would of itself have been enough to prevent the trip to Frankfurt. It did in fact prevent another journey which humanly speaking was still more immediate and urgent, but categorically forbidden by his doctor. . . "
