“The old me is younger than the new me, the me now.”
“The old me is younger than the me now. Ah, but that’s life, no?”
“Everyone I meet now is at least ten years younger than me. I feel like Rip van Winkle with a bald spot.”
“... a gaggle of old ladies is glued to the window at the end of the hall like children or jailbirds. They're spidery and frail, their hair as fine as mist. Most of them are a good decade younger than me, and this astounds me. Even as your body betrays you, your mind denies it.----There are five of them now, white headed old things huddled together and pointing crooked fingers at the glass.”
“my path had led me at that time into a new life, which had now grown old and is dead”
“I was always younger than anyone around me. One day it began to change.”
