About the Book

En estos tiempos en que todo el mundo está obligado, so pena de ser condenado en ausencia por un delito de lesa respetabilidad, a emprender alguna profesión lucrativa y a esforzarse en ella con bríos cercanos al entusiasmo, la defensa de la opinión opuesta por parte de los que se contentan con tener lo suficiente, y prefieren mantenerse al margen y disfrutar, tiene algo de bravata y fanfarronería. Sin embargo, no debería ser así. La supuesta ociosidad, que no consiste en no hacer nada, sino en hacer muchas cosas que no están reconocidas en las dogmáticas prescripciones de la clase dominante, tiene tanto derecho a exponer su posición como la propia laboriosidad. Se suele admitir que la presencia de personas que se niegan a tomar parte en la gran carrera de obstáculos por un poco de calderilla no hace más que insultar y desalentar a quienes participan. Un individuo cabal (como tantos que vemos) toma su decisión, opta por la calderilla y, con esa enfática expresión tan americana, va a por ella. Y, mientras este hombre va ascendiendo trabajosamente por la senda marcada, no es difícil comprender su resentimiento cuando ve que, junto al camino, hay personas cómodamente tendidas sobre la hierba del prado, con un pañuelo sobre las orejas y un vaso al alcance de la mano. La indiferencia de Diógenes tocó una fibra muy sensible de Alejandro. ¿Dónde estaba la gloria de haber conquistado Roma si cuando aquellos turbulentos bárbaros se precipitaron en el Senado encontraron allí a los Padres sentados en silencio e indiferentes a su hazaña? Es descorazonador haberse esforzado para escalar escarpadas cumbres y, al llegar arriba, encontrar que la humanidad permanece indiferente a tu proeza. De ahí que los físicos condenen a quienes se ocupan de lo que no entra en las leyes de la física, que los financieros no toleren más que superficialmente a los que no entienden de alzas y bajas de valores, que los literatos desprecien a los iletrados, y que los de todas las profesiones coincidan
