For film-maker Scott Hicks, who was born in Uganda and grew up in Kenya and Britain before moving to Australia at the age of 14, the discoveries of explorer Sir Richard Burton were particularly inspiring.
"He is a man of many ideas in terms of his historical thinking and his insatiable appetite for knowledge," Hicks said.
He has collected several books written and originally owned by Burton, who also spoke 29 languages and was known for his exploration across Asia and Africa in the 19th century. "I've always admired his uncompromising determination," he said.
Hicks, whose latest movie - No Reservations, starring Catherine Zeta-Jones - opens on August 16, also listed musician and composer Philip Glass and fellow Australian film director Peter Weir as men who inspired him.
