School Of Athens - Raphael

Which character would like to be in the painting 'The School Of Athens', and why?

I would like to be Pythagoras because as Lamblichus said once, that Pythia his pregnant mother would give birth to a man extremely beautiful, wise, and beneficial to humankind. It is said that Pythia was the mother of Pythagoras. It was natural for the ancient biographers to inquire as to origins of Pythagoras' remarkable system.
