52 here. I'm a different person, year by year. Nothing radical, but I'm not the same man I was at 50 or 40 or 30 or 20 or 10.

Blindsight, by Peter Watts:

"I've been tweaked plenty. Change one more synapse and I might turn into someone else."

"That's ridiculous and you know it. Or every experience you had would turn you into a different person."

I thought about that. "Maybe it does."
