Creon.

"Yet, it’s impossible to understand the soul, the mind the wisdom of any man before he’s tested by the great power and laws. Indicates the gods. And I feel this: that a man is of no use to his city if he’s to govern it by wisdom though by a tongue silenced by some fear. And if a man places anything above his city in friendship, that man I think is worthy of disdain. Always did, always will." -Creon.
