He will never choose danger, nor seek it.
He is not given to talk about himself or others.

He does not care that he himself should be praised, nor that other people should be blamed." A gentleman is just a gentle man: no more, no less; a diamond polished that was first a diamond in the rough.

A gentleman is gentle, modest, courteous, slow to take offense, and never giving it.

He is slow to surmise evil, as he never thinks it.

He subjects his appetites, refines his tastes, subdues his feelings, controls his speech, and deems every other person as good as himself.
