Today is National Day of Scientific Culture (Dia Nacional da Cultura Científica). It is a day to promote science education and scientific culture and celebrates Rómulo de Carvalho. He was a physics/chemistry professor and poet (pseudonym António Gedeao): "Eu não sou o alquimista de Dusseldorf. Eu não quero tudo. Eu quero apenas, apenas transmutar esta chatice em flores.", which translates into something like "I am not the alchemist of Dusseldorf. I do not want everything. I want only, only to transmute this tedium into flowers". (From "Poema do Alquimista" / "Poem of the alchemist"). 🌻🌷🪻
