How is Cassius a foil to brutus?

Answer:
It's possible to make a strong case. Cassius' motivations are purely self-serving; whereas Brutus' motivations are - arguably - for the good of Rome. Therefore, each person's attitude/motivation towards Caesar's murder highlights the other's attitude/motivation. Thus, they are foils for one another.
