Icare is a declension of Icarus in the vocative case in Latin. It's also a combination of I and care.

Dixit is a conjugation of dicere in the third person singular perfect/past. Dixit means "he/she said".

Icarus is the name of the boy that flew too close to the sun, melting his wings made of wax and feathers that his father had created, from Greek mythology.

Ovid, a Roman poet, wrote a version of the story where, before falling into the sea, Icarus' father calls out his name.

Just Icare was already taken. You may call me Icare, without the dixit.

Mania kills cells. Brain cells die. Memories become more reduced conceptually, making more efficient use of limited means. Memories shape our reality. Our memories are more or less split in two by abstractions, conceptual reductions. Mood states with memories, concepts, attached. Memories of pain and those of joy. It causes instability, changeability. Fearing that will leave an emptiness between pain and joy and a greater divide.
