    "I can't trace when I realised that aging was a bad thing — I must have been so young that I can't remember. But I was nearly 30 before I found out that most other people don't think the same, or at least don't think that it's important enough to work on. I was in a very lucky situation to be able to make a contribution - I had training in research in a very different field, and I also had quite broad knowledge of biology - so I decide to have a go. My first publication was very well-received, so I kept going!" Aubrey de Grey
