Write an essay where you develop a well reasoned argument about what makes a person good

Read the following opposing philosophical statements before answering the question that follows:

Nothing can possibly be conceived in the world, or even out of it, which can be called good, without qualification, except a good will. Intelligence, wit, judgement, and the other talents of the mind, however they may be named, or courage, resolution, perseverance, as qualities of temperament, are undoubtedly good and desirable in many respects; but these gifts of nature may also become extremely bad and mischievous if the will which is to make use of them, and which, therefore, constitutes what is called character, is not good

– Immanuel Kant, Critique of Pure Reason (1781)

… when we say, “You are nothing else than your life,” that does not imply that the artist will be judged solely on the basis of his wrks of art; a thousand other things will contribute toward summing him up. What we mean is that a man is nothing else than a series of undertakings, that he is the sum, the organization, the ensemble of the relationships which make up these undertakings.

– Jean-Paul Sartre, Being and Nothingness (1943)

Considering both these philosophies write an essay in which you develop a well-reasoned argument about what makes a person “good.” Support your position with appropriate evidence.
