Colloquial verbal locution. Having excessive aspirations and ambitions for real possibilities. To aim for very high goals in any order of things without objective guarantees of achieving them. The phrase seems to derive from the comment of King Philip IV when the Count of Villamediana , later assassinated near the Plaza Mayor in Madrid, stung a bull in a celebration: "it stings well, but it stings very high", alluding with double meaning to his amorous dalliances.
