Good company

" Associate yourself with people of good quality, for it is better to be alone than in bad company "

Booker T Washington

Booker Taliaferro Washington was an American educator, author, orator, and advisor to presidents of the United States. Between 1890 and 1915, Washington was the dominant leader in the African-American community.

More quotes from Mr. Washington:

Success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which he has overcome.

If you want to lift yourself up, lift up someone else.

Few things can help an individual more than to place responsibility on him, and to let him know that you trust him.
