For me as a Welsh actor, Richard Burton is one of my biggest idols. And I've got so many: Peter O'Toole, Laurence Olivier and Oliver Reed. If they got 'Hunky Dory' and 'Citadel' offered to them, they would do completely different jobs on both of them.
I can put all the idols on my bed and sleep, I'm so fond of them.
I'd actually like to make a country album one day. One of my idols is Neil Young, because he's kept himself from being bored.
I grew up thinking Margaret Cho and Lucy Liu were my idols because that's it.
I have no idols. I admire work, dedication and competence.
We all have idols. Play like anyone you care about but try to be yourself while you're doing so.
Dan Aykroyd is a comedy icon and one of my idols of all time, but I also know that he's an incredibly great actor.
We tend to think of our idols as kind of superheroes; maybe less so today, given that people have a tendency to overshare on social media, but when I was growing up, all you knew about these people was what they allowed you to see - which was them doing superhuman things, up on stage in an arena with all these people going crazy.
I have a lot of feminist idols. My favorite thing about growing up in Arkansas - well, not favorite but something I've always felt grateful for - was that I really had to dig for what I could. There was no Internet. There wasn't tons of feminist literature floating around.
God doesn't dwell in the wooden, stony or earthen idols. His abode is in our feelings, our thoughts.
