    This is the key. I know older people who act like they’re in their twenties, and 30 year olds who act like curmudgeonly old men. My girlfriend’s grandfather decided almost overnight that he was an old man and suddenly began to act the part.

    Half of age is perspective.

      This has brought quite a funny mental image to me.

      A man like this

      a young Ian McKellen

      suddenly turning into this

      Ian McKellen as Gandalf

      almost like magic.
