Admiral Yi. He was in command of the Korean navy and was largely responsible for saving his country from the Japanese. He had true commitment to his cause and it showed because his own country had often screwed him over. He was a great strategist as well.

Diogenes, Epictetus. "If you kiss your child or your wife, say that you only kiss things which are human, and thus you will not be disturbed if either of them dies."

I wouldn't really classify any particular man with a blanket, "great". However, I do like to read about the great things men have done. And some have done far more than others.
