Well the guy who invented lobotomy got one of those. Or the guy who invented microcredit. To not even venture in the peace nobel prizes area, where getting one is probably indicative of being evil.

His history of the English speaking peoples is pretty good too. [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_Early_Life https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_Early_Life
