Phineas Gage - 1848
After accident.. "...fitful, irreverent,
indulging at times in the grossest profanity
(which was not previously his custom),
manifesting but little deference for his fellows,
impatient of restraint or advice when it
conflicts with his desires, at times
pertinaciously obstinate, yet capricious and
vacillating"
