"In ancient days two aviators procured to themselves wings. Daedalus flew safely through the middle air and was duly honoured on his landing. Icarus soared upwards to the sun till the wax melted which bound his wings and his flight ended in fiasco. In weighing their achievements, there is something to be said for Icarus. The classical authorities tell us that he was only 'doing a stunt', but I prefer to think of him as the man who brought to light a serious constructional defect in the flying-machines of his day."
-- From "Stars and Atoms," by Sir Arthur Eddington (1927)
