Pegasus

also: Pegazus

The winged horse of Greek mythology, born from Medusa's blood and symbol of poetic inspiration; the proverb 'Pegasus does not learn to plow' (nem tanul meg szántani Pegazus) — which Lorán coins as his motto — means that a creative spirit cannot be broken to bureaucratic drudgery.
