As you know I am a very spiritual person. One of the traditions that he helped establish states something to the effect that "anonymity is the spiritual foundation of all our Traditions, ever reminding us to place principles above personalities."

People who do that are my friends.

He defiantly seems to be more politically out spoken. Right or wrong he never backed down, even after they tried to silence him. I have to agree with you.

Good choices, there are many more, but I especially like Nelson Mandela. Even in prison they couldn't stop his greatness.
