I am going to think of an alternative answer for the most obvious answers of Jesus and all that. Preferably choosing someone who is still alive today. I'd like to meet Nelson Mandela. Have you ever noticed that the man who fought for the breaking of apartheid did it in a purely legal manner, sought no revenge and worked on nothing but peace?
Mandela is a Christian, a revolutionary who was imprisoned in his fight for freedom, and when crowned the president, did no acts to punish those who punished him. There are endless things that he has said that makes me admire this man greatly. His focus on a 'good head' and a 'good heart' demonstrates his great respect for wisdom and grace, as any man should.
"We must use time wisely and forever realize that the time is always ripe to do right."
Life really can be as good as we want it to be, we just need to think so.
