"Associate with men of good quality if you esteem your own reputation; for it is better to be alone than in bad company." - George Washington

Good People are better friends than the bad ones. Don't associate yourself with the bad people. They will only bring you harm. When surrounded by the bad, you should stay alone rather than be with them, they will do you no good. The friends you think are cool that always mess around in class, raley do their work or  get into arguments with everyone are not good friends.
