Exactly
Master. Hence slave owning prick. MLK and Jesus.
I'm not sure I want to emulate him (he's dead). But a man I always admired was Diego "Chico" Corrales. RIP Chico
Me
Bob Knight
Jesus.
If we are talking about non-God people,
I'd like to live like Bono, die like Johnny Cash.
As far as athletics, Michael Jordan competed as good as I gets...if a runner was as clutch as him it would be something to see.
Robert Rauschenberg, American artist. He goes to different remote areas of the world through his ROCI program and works with the native people with the creation of his art. They become a part of it, thereby his work becomes a community event, transcending borders and nationalities.
Dan Gable.
Brett Favre.
Bobby Sands, RFK, Gerry Adams, Che, Pat Tillman.
Strength of conviction.
I'd be amiss not to say Dick and Rick Hoyt as they are so much more than runners/athletes.
Bobby Kennedy
Maynard James Keenan - singer, fronts Tool and A Perfect Circle
Mohamed Ali - boxing legend
David Belle - founder of parkour, parkour legend
Not necessarily in that order.
My dad.
I second Steve Irwin. If everyone showed as much passion in their chosen profession as he did in his the world would be a better place.
Grover Cleveland too.
Thomas Jefferson, John Locke, Adam Smith, and Murray Rothbard are minds that I admire, I don't necessarily agree with the way they led their lives, but I appreciate their contributions to the world of philosophy.
I'd say #1 would be David Kimani. Good guy that Kimani.
