And most importantly‚ he claims himself a God over the Pequod‚ but instead he may be a Satanic figure through his somewhat offensive quest against

and King Lear exemplify what Edgar quoted because both characters started out with everything‚ they were both on top of the world‚ but as both stories continued on there true measure weathered away and both men became empty.
