Who would you want to be?
So the idea came up from a blog post on MikeIndustries.com and is along the lines of if you could sit with anyone at dinner… So to paraphrase:
Who would you most like to be? And in one sentence, why?
I would maybe add a dimension in asking who would you want to know - after all, do I REALLY need to experience Nietzche’s schizophrenia or Steve Jobs pancreatic cancer?? Narrowing it down to one is difficult, but here’s a good start from my head:
- Da Vinci - To be privy to that level of genius would be an honor
- Clearly Steve Jobs
- Ben Franklin - Ditto
- Jimi Hendrix
- Stevie Ray Vaughan
- Alex Hamilton - Ditto, until I met up with that dude Aaron Burr
- Abe Lincoln - Nuff said
- Hugh Hefner - sure, why not?
- Oprah
- Maya Angelou
Note that the majority of commenters on Mike’s post stick with the same gender, even though there is no requirement to do so. Who are your picks?
