Answer:

Prudence: Wisdom, Caution, and the ability to fairly and logically balance all options.

Step-by-step explanation:

The famous ancient Greek philosopher Plato recognized 'four cardinal virtues that lead humans to live a virtuous life.' These values included fairness(justice), wisdom(prudence), courage(fortitude), moderation(temperance). Justice is characterized as the ability to make righteous decisions while fortitude is about displaying strength and forbearance against odds. Moderation is the ability to self-control oneself from overpowering immoral desires or wrongdoings. Lastly, 'Prudence' i.e. 'ability to reason' comes most easily to us as it not only helps in balancing all of them logically and move forward with the right course of action.
