Publicly known world figures, not really. Hear in the heartland I have a lot of religious figures that I respect. They are mostly ordinary every day people performing acts of kindness with no attention or fanfare  and no expectation of thanks. They wouldn't be considered big acts by anyone except the people they help.

Religious figurines? I respect them every time they show up at the shooting range. I help them with their stigmata.
