Einstein. He had some amazing ideas and from what I read he was quite a character! Did you all know he actually flunked math in school? Go figure. I absolutely love to read quotes by him and I bet a conversation with him would be so interesting!

The person I'd like to meet who is still living.... the Dalai Lama. He's such a peaceful, happy man. I'm sure I'd learn a lot from him if we were to spend some time together.

I have four choices.

Einstein, not because of his genuis but because of the offbeat personality he is said to have had....

Edgar Allan Poe, because I enjoy his work and because his gothic nature appeals to me...and because there's something about a man who marries his own cousin

....

Mata Hari, I would want to ask her if she really was a spy or if they executed her unjustly....

Mark Twain....because of his sarcasm and biting wit....

I'm sure I could come up with more....

I'd also like to meet Sylvia Plath. As a writer myself, I'm completely inspired by her work. She killed herself, although she survived her first attempt. I wish she were around to still produce amazing works of writing. Although, from what I've read about her, the way of this world today would probably drive her mad.

I was told by a voodoo priestess in the south that I was Sylvia Plath in my previous life. I didn't know anything about her at the time and started doing a little research. I'm not convinced by what the woman said, but it was interesting anyway.

John Lennon

I could have talked to him for hours about his "give peace a chance ideas"

Albert Einstein

I would ask him what he sees in today's future.

Anne Boleyn

Just to hear her side of the story

John Wayne

Just because he reminds me of a great friend of mine and I would like to compare the 2.

LOL... I'd like to meet Johnny Depp too. Not 'cause he's considered attractive, but because I've seen him in interviews and such and he seems like a fairly intelligent man with some interesting ideas. Plus, I love the quirky roles he chooses to take in movies. He just seems like a cool guy. I'd love to have a chat with him.

I'd love to see his place in France too. :yh_battin

WINSTON CHURCHILL.

Just to find out if he was the great decision maker that was needed in the time of war, or if he really was the obstinate old bugger that half his staff considered him to be. There are so many stories about the man, but to talk to him directly could have been an eye-opener.
