What defines a good person to you?

I say, "to you" because I believe that while our society likes to paint the picture that we are all on the same page as to what makes someone good or bad, it may actually be entirely subjective. We have our own individual morals and values and those are what we ultimately use to determine a person's goodness/badness on a case by case basis. I believe it to be a grey-area, gradient type scale. So to you, what makes a good person? Is it their words, their actions, or a combination of both? And if it is a combination, does that then mean that someone isn't as good of a person if they do not practice both?

If you say you're a kind person and a very generous being, then you have to prove it through actions.

Sometimes words are actions - "you'll be ok, and I'm here for you" can be worth as much or even more than doing something physical. So, I voted "Combination Of Words And Actions".

Words and actions impress me.

Words don't mean much of anything. What you do defines who you are.
