THE MATRIX OF CHARACTER AND REPUTATION

Is it Reputation that builds Character

Or Character that builds Reputation

Tell ye me the answer to this Dilemma

I propose a Matrix of Character

And Reputation

A 2 by 2 Matrix in fact.

I propose a top left positive

Element....being the Character

And a top right negative

Element.....being the other

Then the bottom left is negative

Being Reputation......the other

As much as the bottom right

Should be positive

And being Character....

The last order.

How?.....if at all we need to.

Do we find the eigenvector

Of such a vague Matrix

Tell ye me the way out of this stupor
