For what it's worth...
Benjamin Button: [Voice over; letter to his daughter] For what it's worth: it's never too late or, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be. There's no time limit, stop whenever you want.

If you find that you're not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again.
