The strongest foundation of a good person is the patience to understand any kind of situation and to be able to listen to anyone in a need to be listened from.
While I do agree with you, I disagree about it being the "strongest foundation". Such a thing is easily corruptible and can potentially do the opposite if you manage to catch that person's "bad side". So that makes such a trait potentially counter-intuitive to being a good person if someone lacks the appropriate empathy or knowledge first. Realistically, no person can understand 'any' situation unless they have foresight or are a mind-reader. So, I would say it's most certainly a foundation just not the strongest imho. But essentially, it all goes hand and hand.
Patton would have made a great President.
How is Caesar better than Patton? That said, I love Dwight D. Eisenhower, he is my favorite President and the most virtuous American to ever American.He would have been a terrible president!
A better man than Caesar, though

And in leadership roles that promote strengthening all (like you've said), it's a good healthy balance of IQ and EQ. Understanding and Feeling. Pretty much what we've both said, collectively.
Simply put, Patton's motivations and core drivers were 'nobler' in the sense that they had less to do with his own advancement/pleasure than with his own core values (whatever those values were), but then under this measure Hitler would be a 'better' person than Trump.
Yes! Humility, empathy, ethics and morals.
