ADULTHOOD

'A sad fact, of course, about adult life is that you see the very things you'll never adapt to coming toward you on the horizon. You see them as the problems they are, you worry like hell about them, you make provisions, take precautions, fashions and adjustments; you tell yourself you'll have to change your way of doing things. Only you don't. You can't. Somehow it's already too late.'
Richard Ford, Independence Day, p. 5.
