Icarus Pins and Buttons

Don’t fly too high...

Fall of Icarus

Even as Icarus flies too close to the sun, he throws the metal horns to go out in a blaze of glory. Icarus was the son of the mythical inventor and craftsman Daedalus and Naukrate, a slave of King Minos of Crete. He is famous for flying too close to the sun, wearing a pair of wings built by his father. Some writers have seen Icarus's fate as a warning for people to be aware of their limitations.

Icarus flies to the sun in defiance of his father's instructions. A lesson for youth to believe their elders or just a fun image of Icarus enjoying the freedom of flying. Maybe we should all head for the sun once in a while.

You know the story. Guy fell too high. Fell down.

In ancient Greek mythology Daedalus was an architect and symbol of wisdom and power. He built the Labyrinth at Knossos for King Minos of Minoan Crete, but had to escape using wings made of wax. His son Icarus flew too close to the Sun and his wings melted.

Icarus flew. With hubris he fell.

Careful Icarus
