Me being over 40: "I am old, Gandalf. I don't look it, but I am beginning to feel it in my heart of hearts. Well-preserved indeed! Why, I feel all thin, sort of stretched, if you know what I mean: like butter that has been scraped over too much bread. That can't be right. I need a change, or something."

In Tolkien’s day you were expected to have shellshock or died during childbirth by 20.

I am not even sure I am a fully grown being until I had my Elevenses.
