No one would remember the Good Samaritan if he'd only had good intentions he had money as well.
The first question which the priest and the Levite asked was: 'If I stop to help this man what will happen to me?' But... the good Samaritan reversed the question: 'If I do not stop to help this man what will happen to him?'
As a means of contrast with the sublime the grotesque is in our view the richest source that nature can offer.
