Everybody's talking about who they were in a past life these days, and it's always royalty, but let's be honest, how many of us could possibly have been Cleopatra or Julius Cesar? Don't you think that at least a few of us were poor janitors in Louisiana in the 1930s? We can't all have been royalty, but here are five historical figures we wish we were the reincarnation of...
General George Patton
Patton gets into the idea of reincarnation in his poem Through a Glass, Darkly, revolving around the concept of a soldier who is born again and again, and who dies again and again in the name of his country. Patton was something of a megalomaniac and pictured himself as the epitome of manhood and the fighting spirit... And yeah, he was right. He also showed the sort of clear headed, direct leadership that we could use in this day and age in any industry, not just the military.
Elvis Presley
There is probably nobody else in history who has inspired so many impersonators. There's literally an entire industry built around the idea of dressing, sounding and acting like The King. There's nothing these guys would love more than to hear from an expert that they are, in fact, The King, and that's exactly why they do it so well.
Ben Franklin
Without a doubt, the most eccentric of the founding fathers, Benjamin Franklin is most well known as an inventor of the lightning rod and the bifocals, but he's also remembered for all the crazy stories there are about him. The kite story is exaggerated, but based in reality. He also once talked a friend into joining the army so as to steal his fiancee, and he once electrocuted himself trying to roast a turkey with electricity. If you're the "Kramer" of your group of friends, who knows, maybe that's your face on the hundred dollar bill.
Miss Audrey Hepburn
With so many women wishing they were Cleopatra, you don't hear anyone saying that they were once Audrey Hepburn. She was definitely the icon of grace and beauty in her time, so why not? Maybe she wasn't royalty on the political stage, but she certainly was in world culture. We vote her the woman we most wish would hurry up and be reincarnated already. Not only was she graceful and beautiful, she was charming and funny, and she only grew more beautiful with each passing year as she got older.
Andre the Giant
If you love having a good time, maybe you've got a little Andre in you. The pro wrestler was a known drunk, and a fun drunk. During one incident in New York with Classy Freddy Blasse, the bar closed down after a night of heavy drinking, but the two were just getting started and didn't really want to go home just yet. Andre lifted Blasse on his shoulder and ran to the nearest horse drawn carriage. Andre pulled the poor carriage driver out of the seat, tucked some cash into the guy's pocket, and he and Blasse essentially hijacked the horses and went on a mad spree across Central Park. For all the trouble he caused, Andre was always a lot of fun for the people around him.
