• Resumen

  • During the second half of the nineteenth century, the German caricaturist, painter and poet of illustrated satires, Wilhelm Busch, ended one of his comic strips with a reflection that has impressed me since I was a child, because of its depth and simplicity: �Das Gute, dieser Satz steht fest, ist stets das Böse, was man lässt�. 2 I can't translate this poetically, but the message is: �The Good is the Bad that we don't do�. So many philosophical volumes have been written about the good, and here, in just one clear and simple sentence, everything is said.
