That it is crushing is what Creon says about fate in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, Theban King Creon appears not to worry about fate during most of the play. He even may be said to give the impression of considering it as something that happens to others or that his fate is charmed. But the Furies of fate ultimately trip up all mortals who disrespect them and the gods, as Creon discovers at great personal and professional loss.
Creon says that a good son is loyal, is respectful, and is obedient in "Antigone."
That they both are determined but that one is devoted to fate and the other to himself is a way of comparing and contrasting Creon and Teiresias in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Creon and Teiresias the blind prophet believe what they say and say what they believe. They do not care what others think. The reason lies in the object of their respectively fixated devotions. Creon thinks only of himself whereas Teiresias thinks only of the relentless unfurling of each individual's fate.

That she is as foolish, uncompromising, uncontrolled and unlucky as her father is what the chorus leader says about Antigone's fate in the second scene of "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the chorus leader makes his first observation on her foolishness and unluckiness when he sees that Theban Princess Antigone is escorted by armed guard into her uncle King Creon's presence. He makes his second observation on her lack of conciliation and self-control when Antigone openly admits her guilt. At the end of Antigone's and Creon's interaction, the chorus sings of Antigone's fateful descent from cursed parents and ancestors.
Creon's wife's name in Antigone is Eurydice.
Niece to uncle is Antigone's relationship to Creon in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone is the eldest daughter of disgraced Theban monarchs Oedipus and Jocasta. Queen Jocasta is Creon's sister. Antigone therefore is Creon's niece.
Antigone is,

That she is the cursed and that her behavior does not make her fate better are what the choral odes say about Antigone's fate in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone is described and self-described as the cursed daughter of a cursed royal house. The chorus is not sympathetic to Antigone's downfall. In fact, chorus members observe that like father, like daughter Antigone gets the fate that her uncontrolled behavior wins for her.
