Icarus II
Bronze statue of Icarus to show tribute to his courage and risk taking decisions, very much similar to Perseus fighting the Gorgons.

Joe Paterno, regardless of the scandals that plagued him, he should still be considered a leader at the end of the day. This relates to Icarus reputation of the "go out and get it mentality"
I have had this quote hanging in my room for 3 years and it authentically relates to Icarus and his keen ability to finish a job and follow through. Icarus demonstrated persistence in the wax wing-suit attempt, he knew the possible repercussions, yet he still did it. That is the textbook definition of "Risk Taking."

Kurt Cobain - Wikipedia
Kurt Cobain and the theme of Isolation draw a very obvious parallel between the deaths of the aforementioned grunge rock artist as well as Icarus. As Icarus didn't heed his fathers advice, Cobain (although a much different situation and era), refused to go to rehab for Heroin addiction and ultimately took his own life at the young age of 27.
