From the Quotation of the day mailing list, 2007-01-15:

"In short, [Hannibal] Lecter is and always will be a snob. He is not, whatever his ambitions, a gentleman, partly because he is a homicidal maniac, but also because no gentleman would dream of actually telling you how much he values courtesy." -- Anthony Lane, in a New Yorker review of the novel "Hannibal Rising", by Thomas Harris.

Er, no, he's Lithuanian gentry and living in the US for part of the span of time covered by the series.
