I am unfamiliar with the others, but most certainly agree with this one... science and logic. I have had mentors and others who I aspire to be more like, Rachel Carson, for one, obviously. I admire science author Laurie Garrett and the researchers she writes about. I've had two artistic mentors, both good friends. And I greatly admire Barack Obama. And having said all that, I am going to be less present on this board for a while. The current state of the world - climate change, the war on Ukraine - and American politics and the divisive behavior and cult mentality in this country have worsened my Weldtschmerz and I need a break. Input overload, on this board and the media. Maybe this winter I will just hibernate...  There's definitely a lot going on at present... and no one knows what the future will hold. So the wisest thing any of us can do is to look after ourselves the best we can.

The part about being your own hero. One of the best speeches I've ever heard. Makes you really think.

Joan Embry of the San Diego Zoo. I loved her appearances on the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson, when she would nonchalantly handle tigers, cheetahs, and other wild animals, while Carson sometimes cowered in fear. I always wished I could be like her, and now whenever I handle the hissing kitties and little dogs down at the local shelter, I sometimes pretend I'm dealing with dangerous wild animals.

I admire certain qualities of my favorite fictional characters but in the end, I am me and I do what I think is right.
