Age

In the last of his series of lectures, Dr Adolphous Bongo looks to the future, and finds that the only consolation of spending his declining years sitting in his own filth in the day lounge of some third rate retirement home is the prospect that his razor sharp brain will have deteriorated to such a point that he will no longer have the capacity to care.

"Immortality is not necessarily such an attractive proposition. Take a look at the people around you. Go on, do it now. Ask yourself: do you really want those people hanging round forever?"
