A gentleman will lick it before he sticks it.

I think my teachers' teacher would say benevolence and beneficence, willing the good and doing the good.

I think being gentlemanly is not buying 6 pairs of shoes from a PSA and flipping them for a profit of $150 each.

Of course, being the douchebag that I am, I will also point out that justifying why you did the above, makes you look even worse. Take the hit, apologize for your oversight and don't repeat the mistake.

I think Cardinal Newman's definition of a gentleman as someone who never willingly inflicts pain is a good start.

I think being a gentleman is something that if you can't intuit it, trying to articulate it won't do you any good.
