Wilhelm Busch, der Mann dieser burlesken Verse Kniittelreime lautet die technisch abfällige Bezeichnung (wir Glück lichen haben ja für alles termini!) Busch ein „wirklicher Dichter? Wie Goethe und Schiller und Heine? (höher geht's nicht.) Und was für ein feiner Künstler! Überdies gar ein Philo soph, wenn das eine Steigerung sein soll.
