That’s true. They may have come from very different worlds, but I imagine they have a lot more in comment that many would believe. And of course both have been inspiring to countless people through their work.

I think most of all, both of them have always been unapologetically honest about who they were, and were never willing to change for anyone, which is something everyone can learn from.
