Disclaimer:
We have not included the men and women on this
site for the purpose of offering any of them as “heroes” or
“ideal role models.” No human being is perfect; most have at
least a few glaring short-comings. And some of the people
included on this website may even have whole aspects of their
lives that are less than admirable. This is not surprising, as
most famous people throughout history, no matter how great their
accomplishments in some areas, have had feet of clay.
Consider King Solomon in the Bible: By the end of
his life it is recorded that he turned away from the pure
worship of the true God to following his many wives into serving
their pagan gods! And yet his words are still recorded in the
book of Proverbs in the Bible after almost 3000 years, and
studied, admired, and used as a guide to life by both Christians
and Jews. He may have ultimately failed miserably in his
personal life, but his written words are still infused with the
wisdom that God gave him in his earlier years. And he used the
gift of verbal creativity with which God endowed him to craft
some of the most memorable sayings of all time.
And so it is with each of the people profiled on
this site. In spite of whatever shortcomings they may have had
in their personal lives, the life work of each in their chosen
field exhibits a creative spark that can be admired and even
emulated, without the need to embrace those aspects of their
lives that came up short.
