Quote #10

He was afraid of his own sanity, living like this, especially after the death of Daisy's father. Moses thought he saw him, met him in the woods, and when he opened doors he encountered his father-in-law, vivid and characteristic, waiting by a table or sitting in the bathroom. (4.159)

It's weird, but Herzog thinks he sees Daisy's father even after the man has died. Herzog wasn't especially close to the man, but father figures tend to stick out in Herzog's mind. This is probably because he had such a complicated relationship to his own father growing up.
