Quote 1
If [Nathan's] guilt made him a tyrant before men, it made him like a child before his God. (3.Prologue.28)
Correction: it makes him a petulant child before God, the type of child that tries to manipulate his parents (in this case, the Father) to get what he wants and throws a tantrum when it doesn't happen.

Quote 2
Every few years, even now, I catch the scent of Africa. [...] Ripe fruits, acrid sweat, urine, flowers, dark spices. (2.Prologue.1, 2.Prologue.3)
The scent of Africa is a piquant blend, much likes its jungles, of the beauty of nature and the less-than-glamorous realities of human life. (We all sweat and pee. Even Bradley Cooper.)
