Owls' whispers... to open minded butterflies

"Even a tiny imprint in the mind can create a lifetime of illusion"
Buddhist quote

"Past is history, future is a mistery and present is a gift! That's why it is called present!"
in KungFu Panda

"Dentro de vinte anos sentir-te-ás mais desiludido pelas coisas que não fizeste do que por aquelas que fizeste. Assim, desfralda as velas. Afasta-te do porto seguro. Aproveita os ventos alísios. Explora. Sonha. Descobre."
(English version)
"In 20 years you'll feel more disappointed with what you haven't done than with you have. So step away of the safe port and set sail. Get those favourable winds. Explore. Dream. Discover."
Mark Twain

"Because I'm the size of what I see and not of how tall I am..."
Fernando Pessoa
...and step by step we become aware that our view changes the world and the world changes our view...

"Para ser grande sê inteiro.
Nada teu exagera ou exclui.
Sê todo em cada coisa.
Põe quanto és no mínimo que fazes.
Assim em cada lago a lua toda brilha, porque alta vive."
(English version)
"To be great be fully.
Nothing yours adds more or takes away.
Be whole in each moment.
Give your best in the minimum you do.
So in each lake the full moon shines, because it lives up high."
Fernando Pessoa - Ricardo Reis
Portuguese Modernist poet - 1888-1935

"Foi meditando sobre a got de orvalho que desvendei o segredo do mar"
English version)
"It was meditating on the a drop of dew that I uncovered the secret of the ocean"
Kahlil Gibran

"Três regras de trabalho:
1 - no meio da desordem, ache a simplicidade
2 - no meio da discórdia ache a harmonia
