In ‘Oedipus the King’, we see timeless human behaviors like pride and downfall. Oedipus’s big ego and thinking too highly of himself is something people have done for ages, often causing their own problems. “Oedipus the King” makes us think if our lives are controlled by fate or the choices we make. Oedipus’s strong desire to discover the truth teaches us that we all want to know even if it’s painful. His big mistake, ignorance of his past, reminds us that we all have weaknesses that can cause big trouble.
