“Mens agitat molem” – Mind drives matter.
This phrase from Eneida, the epic novel by Vergílio, is the first “mind teaser” from “Mensagem”, a book by Fernando Pessoa. The title contains some random (?) letters from Virgílio’s phrase – Mens agitat molem, giving a clue about the mindset behind this masterpiece.
I’m a huge fan of this motto, since it’s a tricky “facelift” of the famous “Cogito ergo sum”. The major difference is the final goal – to act, therefore I am.

Time for a blog change.

I got tired of the previous theme and decided to make it by myself, keeping WordPress as the main engine (got wp-plugin addicted). The transparency are my favourite parts, however, older browsers won’t show it correctly. It is still in beta, so any suggestions are welcome :)
