What is a gentleman?

How would you define a gentleman? What would you consider are the five essential qualities of a true gentleman? How can you tell a gentleman from just a man?And while I'm at it, what's the difference between a lady and a woman?These aren't 'catch' questions - I'm being serious(for once).:-(
