My grandparents. They had 8 children of their own and adopted three polish girls during WW2. They taught all their kids and grand kids that somethings are more important then money. My grandpa invented the first color safe red dye in the mid 1900's but still raised all his kids on a farm because he thought that would teach them more than raising them in a mansion. They also taught each of us that a college degree doesn't earn respect. My aunts and uncles range from nuclear engineers to Appliance repairman, but each loves and respects the other.
Mother Teresa. Wise woman.
and those that are willing to give of themselves when another is in need without expectations of repayment.
