Richard Dawkins’ Swan Song

Max Raskin: You called your current tour around the U.S. your “swan song,” so I wanted to talk with you a little bit about aging. Your dad lived to be 95. You wrote this phrase about him, “He learned to laugh at his infirmities with the benign cheerfulness that often deserts the very old.” 

Is that you too? Are you approaching things that way?
