Que importa cuantos años tengo - José Saramago
Frecuentemente me preguntan que cuántos años tengo... ¡Qué importa eso! Tengo la edad que quiero y siento. La edad en que puedo gritar sin miedo lo que pienso.Hacer lo que deseo, sin miedo al fracaso, o lo desconocido. Tengo la experiencia de los años vividos y la fuerza de la convicción de mis deseos. ¡Qué importa cuántos años tengo!. No quiero pensar en ello. Unos dicen que ya soy viejo y otros que estoy en el apogeo. Pero no es la edad que tengo, ni lo que la gente dice, sino lo que mi corazón siente y mi cerebro dicte. Tengo los años necesarios para gritar lo que pienso, para hacer lo que quiero, para reconocer yerros viejos, rectificar caminos y atesorar éxitos. Ahora no tienen por qué decir: ¡Eres muy joven!, no lo lograrás; o ¡Estas muy viejo!, ya no podrás. Tengo la edad en que las cosas se miran con más calma, pero con el interés de seguir creciendo. Tengo los años en que los sueños se empiezan a acariciar con los dedos, y las ilusiones se convierten en esperanza. Tengo los años en que el amor, a veces es una loca llamarada, ansiosa de consumirse en el fuego de una pasión deseada, y otras es un remanso de paz, como el atardecer en la playa. ¿Qué cuántos años tengo? No necesito marcarlos con un número, pues mis anhelos alcanzados, mis triunfos obtenidos, las lágrimas que por el camino derramé al ver mis ilusiones truncadas... ¡Valen mucho más que eso!. Qué importa si cumplo, cuarenta, cincuenta, sesenta o sesenta y tres mas. Pues lo que importa es la edad que siento.Tengo los años que necesito para vivir libre y sin miedos. Para seguir sin temor por el sendero, pues llevo conmigo la experiencia adquirida y la fuerza de mis anhelos. ¿Qué cuantos años tengo? ¡Eso a quién le importa!. Tengo los años necesarios para perder el miedo y hacer lo que quiero y siento. Qué importa cuántos años, ¿cuantos tengo o cuantos espero?. Si con los años que tengo, aprendí a querer lo necesario y a tomar solo lo bueno. José Saramago Para Usted, Greco |

![]() ![]() I love the innocent sensuality portrayed in his work along with lush color! Hans Zatzka, also known as P. Ronsard,Zabateri, Pierre de Ronsard, Joseph Bernard and Bernárd Zatzka, was born March 8, 1859 in Vienna, to a builder and his Viennese actress wife, Hilde Sochor.
Zatzka showed an early interest in painting. From 1877 to 1882 he attended the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna, studying under Christian Griepenkerl, Karl Wurzinger, and Carl of Blaas. In 1880, at the age of 20, he was awarded the Golden Fügermedal; the golden decoration for services to the city Vienna. After several trips to Italy, Hans worked in the style of his predecessor, Hans Makart, as a free-lance painter in Vienna, painting ceiling frescoes in stairway houses and residential buildings, numerous murals for altars in churches, and portraits. It was during this time that he developed as special interest in academic genre paintings of idyllic women and cupids. From these representations, Zatzka turned to painting guardian angel images, elves, sensuous female figures, genre scenes, allegories and other popular motifs. He was a greatly influenced by the operas of Richard Wagner and considered ground-breaking in the production of "bedroom pictures" or "towel format", a term used to describe a format that fit the low ceiling and cramped spaces. By the 1920's this style was the size of choice for most European homes. By the turn of the century, Zatzkas' pictures turned to picture postcard sales in the galleries of Viennese artists, and ultimately sold to other publishers. In 1906, Zatzka gave precise orders for mass production on a trial basis. By 1914, the first of Hans Zatzkas' bedroom images were distributed. Hans Zatzka did not make his living from postcards but from his religious frescoes in churches, altar paintings, and other large commissions such as hospitals in Vienna during the 1920's. He lived in his home studio, never took in students or teaching jobs and painted until the 80th year of his life.
