Oh? No, no, hardly not. I mean, my father is hardly poor, but he's the type of man who prides himself on his manners and intellect above everything else, including wealth and social status.

[He pauses, before speaking up again in a different tone - it's obvious he's mimicking someone.]

"A true gentleman always helps those in distress, never refuses the request of a beautiful lady, and never leaves a puzzle unsolved." [And he speaks again, but in his normal voice this time.] To my father, that's just his way of life, and he imparted that on me as well.

[Spoilers: IT DIDN'T WORK OUT ALL THAT WELL]
