Some critics feel that Alice's personality and her waking life are reflected in Wonderland; that may be the case. But the story itself is independent of Alice's "real world." Her personality, as it were, stands alone in the story, and it must be considered in terms of the Alice character in Wonderland.
A strong moral consciousness operates in all of Alice's responses to Wonderland, yet on the other hand, she exhibits a child's insensitivity in discussing her cat Dinah with the frightened Mouse in the pool of tears. Generally speaking, Alice's simplicity owes a great deal to Victorian feminine passivity and a repressive domestication. Slowly, in stages, Alice's reasonableness, her sense of responsibility, and her other good qualities will emerge in her journey through Wonderland and, especially, in the trial scene. Her list of virtues is long: curiosity, courage, kindness, intelligence, courtesy, humor, dignity, and a sense of justice. She is even "maternal" with the pig/baby. But her constant and universal human characteristic is simple wonder — something which all children (and the child that still lives in most adults) can easily identify with

Answer:
According to Line 1 and Line 10 of the poem, it can be inferred that Icarus is better off testing his limits, a feat he must embark on in order to discover his abilities instead of wondering somewhere years later what would have been.
- The first opens with a question asking to know what else the boy could have done
- in the tenth and opening of the eleventh line, he alludes that the boy flew exactly to the point of wisdom;
- Following through on that, the remainder of the eleventh and twelfth line rejects the notion of living in ignorance of ones capabilities and possibilities;
- The confirmation that Icarus now knew his strengths, weaknesses and capabilities is easily rested with the eighteenth line.
