I have come to a mind-boggling conclusion, and that is, comedians make the best moral teachers. I have never been more contemplative than after coming in contact with some of their work. So I thought I'll just list a few of the comedians who have left their mark on me.
In no particular order or preference: George Carlin, Louis C.K., Jimmy Carr, Jim Jeffries, Dave Chappelle, Eddie Murphy (Standup), Rowan Atkinson, Ricky Gervais, Stephen Merchant, Karl Pilkington, Chris Rock, Zack Galifianakis and Bill Burr. Other influences were of course the entire Monty Python contribution, P.G. Wodehouse, Douglas Adams, Stephen Fry, Hugh Laurie and Tim Minchin.
