Physics, Astronomy & Cosmology / Does Einstein's equation E=MC^2 negate the idea of no travel faster than light?

I remember Einstein had remarked that nothing in the universe can travel faster than light for it is a universe constant. I have a question regarding his famous formula E=MC^2. Does his theory not state (within itself) that Energy is equal to Mass times the speed of light squared? The speed of light is being squared here and it is also being multiplied by mass. This to me sounds like travelling faster than the speed of light is entirely possible. Someone please correct me if I am mistaken in my assertion.
