Colton Briggs

Nothing belongs to the dead, because the dead don’t need anything. Only the living need to possess things. The living need food, water, shelter, clothes, family, money, land. But the dead, the dead have already been tended to. Once they’re put in the ground, they have all they need. They’re not selfish. I like the dead.

The character Colton Briggs, as played by Nicolas Cage in The Old Way (2023), written by Carl W. Lucas.
