Me.
No, this isn't an ego-trip, anymore than any straight answer to that question could be. But there is only one entity of whom I'm certain has control over my life, and that's me. Which is not to say that I don't believe there's something larger than me, but simultaneously I recognize that any such idea is elementary and is impossible to answer by its very nature. So, while I don't engage in any outright self-worship (except maybe in the shower... ahem...), the only answer for which I can be sure is me.
Now, the more pertinent question is WHICH me. Now that's a stumper.
Oh, okay, if you want to know who I idolize, I'd say Morrison's high up there, but also in the field of comics people like Chris Ware and Evan Dorkin and Alan Moore. Musically, Lennon (natch), Billy Corgan, Danny Elfman, Maynard James Keenan, and so on. Writers (prose) include Doug Rushkoff, RAW, CS Lewis (in his less overtly preachy moments), Stanislaw Lem, Vonnegut and so on.
I can do this all day. The sincere and heartfelt answer is the original one. |
