I like the fact that Galileo pursued his dream. Even though he originally went to the University of Pisa to study medicine, he decided to move on to his passion, which was mathematics. Not only did he excel in his passion, but in my opinion, he inspired others to follow their dreams.

There's not much not to admire about the great Galileo Galilei, but I found one thing. When he had his three children (Livia, Virginia & Vincenzio) he involved all but one of them in his career- Livia. I think that to be a good father and a good person overall, he should have let all of his children assist him in his work when he was older.
