I tend to agree with that as well, but I think character is also a good measurement of an individual. How kind is someone? How caring and giving are they? Do they try to make the world better (even in the smallest of ways)? These are important also.

I find it very telling to consider what a person values. Human life, freedom of self-determination (including the pursuit of happiness), family, self-improvement, productive ability, self-sufficiency, integrity, consistent morals, superficiality, money (as an end vs. as a means to an end), power, dogma... Each value that a person embraces tells you something about them.
