»Die leidvollste Gestalt der griechischen Bühne, der unglückselige Ödipus, ist von Sophokles als der edle Mensch verstanden worden, der zum Irrtum und zum Elend trotz seiner Weisheit bestimmt ist, der aber am Ende durch sein ungeheures Leiden eine magische segensreiche Kraft um sich ausübt, die noch über sein Verscheiden hinaus wirksam ist.« (Friedrich Nietzsche)
