From Merriam-Webster:
icon
noun \??-?kän\
computers : a small picture on a computer screen that represents a program or function
: a person who is very successful and admired
: a widely known symbol
Gotta be lonely, being an icon. Genius is defined by its very absence in every day life. You know you’re in the presence of genius because of its rarity. You know it when you see it.
