Despite their flaws (who doesn’t have one please cast the first stone), these are the people I look up to:
– President Carter with his commitment to build housing for the poor
– President Clinton out of that place called Hope
– Jim Elliot, the late great missionary who died for his cause
– Danny Devito who despite his “short-coming”, managed to secure a starring role in Taxi
– Nelson Mandela, there is no need to elaborate here
– Cheryl Crow for touring and making it as an artist in a predominantly male rockers club
– Norman Mailer for speaking out and writing up monumental pieces of literature
– Charlie Chaplin, who saw the inhumanity of the system, and in the process makes us laugh without a need for words
– Robert Redford who started Sundance Festival to encourage young film makers to step up to the plate
