Whatever the “core” of a man is, it is something that you and I are defining differently, perhaps reflecting a basic difference in our views of human nature. You say it’s unchangeable; I say the mind has power over it to change it. By noticing the symptoms of a bitter core in early old-age, a man or a woman can take action. I believe we change the way old age is spent. The key is look at one’s self, to be aware.
