"When the devil grew old he joined a convent" is an idiom in my language. It seems fitting for Carter.

explain?

Does this really need to be explained?

[–] jackpot@lemmy.ml 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

yeah

It's saying Carter led and evil life and now that he has grown old he is seeking redemption, personally I think he was a pretty good dude.

I know rawdogg has tried explaining your idiom. But could you please elaborate on why you find it fitting for Carter?
