Yeah, People change when they move into and through adulthood (note that I am not saying "progress"). They live and then they die (sometimes even of boredom).
@Xenophon:
Can you just check your pulse, please ? It's mandatory for everyone who has finished "Pride and Prejudice" .... I think.
For me it was "War and Peace" - I read it in German though so I should say "Krieg und Frieden".
