Understanding the Life of My Father-in-Law z'l

A New Yorker article on Malcolm Glazer (controversial owner of Manchester United and the Tampa Bay Bucs) included this following quote that brought to mind my father-in-law and the way he faced every day (New Yorker online has not published the piece):

"If you have a father who dies when you are young, you don't trust the future anymore...you were cheated once, you'll probably get cheated again...Death is right around the corner, waiting to grab anyone in this room. Watch out. Walk fast when you go out of the house here, so he doesn't grab you"
