Re: Nine Virtues
Helpfully the Catholic Church concentrates the nine virtues, which I think may be an Anglican distinction, into a more easily manageable four Cardinal Virtues.
Prudence - able to judge between actions with regard to appropriate actions at a given time
Justice - proper moderation between self-interest and the rights and needs of others
Restraint or Temperance - practicing self-control, abstention, and moderation
Courage or Fortitude - forbearance, endurance, and ability to confront fear and uncertainty, or intimidation
They were originally developed from Plato.
The term "cardinal" comes from the Latin cardo or hinge; the cardinal virtues are so called because they are hinges upon which the door of the moral life swings.
