For further thought, adding to the lists of Franklin's Virtues (2008-05-23) and Epistemic Virtues (2018-06-05), from Wikipedia's "Cardinal Virtues":

• Prudence: the ability to discern the appropriate course of action to be taken in a given situation at the appropriate time, with consideration of potential consequences
• Justice: also considered as fairness
• Fortitude: also termed courage, forbearance, strength, endurance, and the ability to confront fear, uncertainty, and intimidation
• Temperance: also known as restraint, the practice of self-control, abstention, discretion, and moderation tempering the appetition

... plus three "Theological Virtues":

• Faith

• Love (or Charity)
