1926, Roberto Arlt, “Judas Iscariote”, in El juguete rabioso:No parecerá entonces exagerado decir que entre un individuo y el comerciante se han establecido vínculos materiales y espirituales, relación inconsciente o simulada de ideas económicas, políticas, religiosas y hasta sociales, y que una operación de venta, aunque sea la de un paquete de agujas, salvo perentoria necesidad, eslabona en sí más dificultades que la solución del binomio de Newton.- (please add an English translation of this quotation)
