What are some good quotes on fate in Oedipus Trilogy?

I need a quote on the theme of ';inevitability and uncertainty of fate'; for each of the play: Oedipus Rex, Oedipus at Colonus, and Antigone. I have already found the ones for Rex and Colonus, but I don't think they represent the theme well enough. Please note the scene where the quote is located. Thanks!What are some good quotes on fate in Oedipus Trilogy?
Oedipus at Colonus:





';Who craves excess of days,


Scorning the common span


Of life, I judge that man


A giddy wight who walks in folly's ways.


For the long years heap up a grievous load,


Scant pleasures, heavier pains,


Till not one joy remains


For him who lingers on life's weary road


And come it slow or fast,


One doom of fate


Doth all await,


For dance and marriage bell,


The dirge and funeral knell.


Death the deliverer freeth all at last.';





'; Ills on ills! no pause or rest!


Come they from our sightless guest?


Or haply now we see fulfilled


What fate long time hath willed?


For ne'er have I proved vain


Aught that the heavenly powers ordain.


Time with never sleeping eye


Watches what is writ on high,


Overthrowing now the great,


Raising now from low estate.';





';Man is born to fate a prey.';





Antigone:





';Past, present, and to be,


All bow to thy decree,


All that exceeds the mean by Fate


Is punished, Love or Hate.';





';Strange are the ways of Fate, her power


Nor wealth, nor arms withstand, nor tower;


Nor brass-prowed ships, that breast the sea


From Fate can flee.';What are some good quotes on fate in Oedipus Trilogy?
