Here's a list of virtues, according to Rand. it starts with the shortest summary, from Rand's short essay on Objectivist Ethics, published in "The Virtue of Selfishness":

"The three cardinal values of the Objectivist ethics ... are: Reason, Purpose, Self-esteem, with their three corresponding virtues: Rationality, Productiveness, Pride."

 

Thanks for the source. Interesting

All the good characteristics can belong to a rational being because being rational is the fundamental requirement of the Source.

Is that what the Oracle told you?
