"Perhaps it’s better to recognize this degree of personal fallacy while still young, rather than lose one’s fixed sense of self in middle age as beauty and youth fade, or strength and agility fail. It might be worse to cling to sarcasm and contempt until one finds herself isolated, loathed by all her peers. Nevertheless, this extreme form of psychological course correction still feels…devastating."
