At the end of the play 'Antigone', Theban King Creon concludes that he has been proud and selfish, that his life has been a series of mistakes, and that his punishment for his cruelty and pride is just beginning. For example, he specifically accepts responsibility for the suicides of his wife, Queen Eurydice; and of his son, Haemon. He considers his willful behavior as the cause of their deaths. In essence, he calls himself their murderer.
