I would like to make it clear for purposes of this discussion that I know that someone truly ethical has to have some degree of courage, but the courage I speak of includes the ability to tell someone he's an asshole if he is (not on this forum, obviously). Also, for argument's sake, let's assume intelligence is a trait thrown-in with each combination.
Edit: Mods, please change thread and poll title to: "Which two of these character traits"?

Ethics aren't really required so long as you have morals.

A sense of humour is nice, but not necessarily 'admirable' - whereas the combination of courage and ethics means a person that will do the right thing - rather than bravely erring or knowing the right thing but failing to do it.
