Those Who We See, With Great Regard

So, i apologize upfront if this thread has been made before, let alone not knowing where to post this one, i had very little idea of where to search for a pre-existing one.

SO!
Who are your heros?
Whom do you look up to in your time of darkness?
Why do they stick out in your mind, and empower you to do what you must?
Who are these great folks, that we call role models?


My awnsers-
#1- Carl Sagan -"To live in the hearts we leave behind is to never die."
To me carl sagan is damned near everything ive ever wanted to be, he is educated *So it seems at least* in just about anything that ive ever taken interest in.. He influences my mind, in philsophical ways, how to think about things before jumping into them, and when thinking of things on a grand scale, he is usually the first to come into my head.
This is why he is the reason behind thoughts.

#2- Galileo Galilei -He, but my definiton is all that is aspired by myself, on thoughts of logic, reason, and exploration. He instead of standing in my mind as great for what he did, moreso is there for what he was made to have to overcome to achieve the the conviction of his theories in a populice.

#3- Master Chief - (luagh as you may!) But i do have my reasons...
(This is more of a childhood, aspiration converted into a symbol of near perfection in an challenging environment, to excell and overcome challenges)
It is the total package in my mind, and it is easier to understand if you completely seperate the actual figure, from his triumphs and what was done to accomplish those. His physical dominance, his unmatched leadership skills, and his mental understanding. It the empowerment of perfection that he strived for, and I could only ever dream of following.

So there you have it, the Spirit, the Reasoning, the Deliverance.
