       One example of contrast is Anthony's impulsive nature and adaptability to fit in with what the people around him want and expect as opposed to Octavius’ set nature that eventually distresses the people around him.  It might be a better idea, however, to ask this question about another character (not Octavius) that plays a larger role throughout the play because it will be easier to point out contrasts on a more developed character.
