If you could be and personally experience (in the first person sense) the full life of any historical figure, who would it be and why?

Da Vinci, maybe? Holy crap, think of all the stuff he got to do.
Hmm, I'm sure there are other options too. Maybe Jefferson? Socrates? Jim Henson? Sir Francis Drake? I feel like I'm overlooking someone though.
Note: I don't actually know the full lives of these people, just chunks, so perhaps something utterly horrible that happened to each and I don't really want to be any of these.

...the human race will disappear. Other races will appear and disappear in turn. The sky will become icy and void, pierced by the feeble light of half-dead stars. Which will also disappear. Everything will disappear. And what human beings do is just as free of sense as the free motion of elementary particles. Good, evil, morality, feelings? Pure 'Victorian fictions'.

My selection is entirely of British people. I couldn't really bear to live the life of a religious person (I make an exception with Elizabeth I), and they must have lived a fair amount of time.
Purely hypothetically: Horatio Nelson, Elizabeth I, Bertrand Russell, Mary Shelley, Virginia Woolf, William Wordsworth...
Edit: Peter the Great and Catherine the Great of Russia would be good.
