What quotations illustrates one of the ways Creon acts as foil for Oedipus?

Creon: "And yet you do - in making light of these dread rites for the departed"

_Oedipus, Rex_, ll. 147-148

Oedipus: "Why, that's exactly what I think / And always will - I can't reject my mind"

_Oedipus, Rex_, ll. 149-150

Oedipus: "Why, you who are so clever at divining everything / Haven't you found out by now that this man / Creon has long wanted to to push me from my throne / And reign as king himself?"

_Oedipus, Rex_, ll. 173-177
