Notes:
"Bercht en 'Los negocios del señor Junio César' nos decía que los grandes hombres se han esforzado siempre por ocultar el verdadero móvil de sus actos. Sin lugar a dudas, Julio César era un gran hombre, y quizás por esta razón García Márquez habría de afirmar que aprendió mucho de él, esto es, que aprehendió los modos de actuación que adoptó su fascinante delirio de dictador. García Márquez hubiera quierido crear un personaje como el Julio César en la literatura (1), pero Roma no es el Caribe y sus dictafores no son [grandes hombres]. Lo único que permanece invariable en ambos casos es el enigma del poder, su delirio. Entonces, la pregunta se precipita: por quéno se cuentan siempre las mismas historias del mismo modo?"
