"Everything seems fine until you're about 40. Then……" — Martin Amis

"Everything seems fine until you're about 40. Then something is definitely beginning to go wrong. And you look in the mirror with your old habit of thinking, 'While I accept that everyone grows old and dies, it's a funny thing, but I'm an exception to that rule."

— Martin Amis
