Death Quote by Lorenzo Carcaterra

“The older you get, the deadlier you have to be and you use age to your advantage. You make it a strenght. Most of us are more dangerous the longer we live. If we didn't care about dying when we were young, we're not going to be too concerned about it when we have two feet in our grave.” quote by Lorenzo Carcaterra
