What is motivation?
- By Mickey Mouse -

      Broadly speaking, motivation is the internal force that drives our thoughts, moods and behaviors. This word derives from the Latin "movere", that is to say "to move". His study is a central part of the young science known as psychology and of the psychoanalytic school too.
      Freud originated the idea that behaviour could be unconsciously motivated, that is, that individuals can be completely unaware of the drives or reasons that are causing them to behave in certain ways.
      Recently my friend Duck Donald called me that my name Mickey Mouse, "Topolino" in Italian language, was used as a bad name to denigrate a Web site of archaeology. Why? I don´t know, but I suspect that silly "Gamba di legno" there is behind.
      Be careful, my friends, because the mother of enviouses is always pregnant... But the eagles have to flight above in the sky, without seeing the gallinaceans below, who deceive themselves as those slugs who say to take part in history only leaving their slime on the monuments.
Best regards,
Mickey

Note: our opinionist Nat Cooper ("Mickey") explains that he chosed not to write in Italian because his comment wants to be amusing and not, in any way, an answer to the "Gambadilegno"s
    When we asked him why, he quoted the poet E. E. Cummings:
"I´d rather learn from one bird how to sing than teach ten thousand stars how not to dance".
