As an interviewer I can tell you that we are not looking for any specific answer so you do not need to try to blow smoke. These types of questions are more to assess your thinking and let us get to know you. I love to ask questions like these b/c there are many people that believe that a good applicant is more than just numbers.
 
There are in fact several ways to look at this. You don't need to just answer one person, you can talk about one person for each quality that represents you. For example, you can admire your grandfather for his courage to win over a disease; your teacher for his/her patients at teaching the toughest students; or a famous person for his/her outstanding trait.

This question is basically "what kind of person are you?" Since you're a 3-dimensional person, you can talk about multiple people and multiple traits.
