Who has been the most influential person in my life?
I can’t just specifically talk about one person.
As I stepped into new situations, I have confronted new people, and each of them has thought me a new, unique lesson. However, there are always some people in everybody’s life who are the most influential people.
In my life, those people have been my parents. My father, with his great heart, endeavor, honesty, and tolerant; and my mother, with her kindness, morality, and strength as a feminist have become my pattern.
Even though I haven’t roughly gotten what they tried to teach me, over the years, as things have come up in my life, I remember things they thought me that pertain to what I am going through now, and I try to apply it, and it helps me.
I still think that I have got many things to learn from them, and I try my best to do that.

One of the main characters was a monk or some sort of holy man or guru. He often said "The continuity of time is an illusion". He was instructing a younger man. I can't remember the author either (I read so much science fiction during that era.) but thought someone might remember the quote.

Enraged by what he called the impertinence of the
Hellespont in blowing up a storm which brought to a halt his army of 2 million,
Herodotus relates that Xerxes ordered 300 lashes be given that unruly body of
water besides throwing in a pair of fetters, followed by a branding with hot
irons. You can imagine how this news was received at Athens; I mean that the
Persians were on the march.
---
I am not sure I understand the last 2 sentences. How the news was received at Athens? They think he is crazy thus the Greeks were really afraid of Xerxes? and what about the Persians were on the march? they were marching over the bridge of ships. how this march connect to 'how the news was received at the Athens'? Considering Greeks just won this war and Persians lost, the 'march' they were on was to retreat. How is this to connect with the rest of the text?

I hope somebody out there can help me out here. Thanks.

Some critics see Erik as the unconscious, the Freudian superego. Do yuo believe this is what Leroux was truly writing about, or did he give his monster more depth?

NOTE: This is a question about the book by Gaston Leroux, not about the musical by Andrew Lloyd Webber.
