My role models are mainly movie characters because the embody certain qualities taken to the highest level. It's also that I mainly think about models that embody a quality I aim to concentrate on myself, not one that I am working on as part of my natural progress through life, such as communication, etc.
So some of them would be:
Data from Star Trek - for his consistency, his devotion to principles, his memory and his exceptional exceptional mental skills, and Guynan, for her wisdom and extra-dimensional perception
Patrick Jane from "The Mentalist", for his mental acuity and keen perception
Riddick, for being a fierce hunter
Starbuck from Battlestar Galactica - for being the best "fracking" viper pilot, and James Olmos playing Admiral Adama from the same series, for his authority, both as a character and as a person and humanitarian activist.
Will Smith both as a person and as a movie character in any of his movies
Master Yoda for talking so beautifully about "the Force"
