good people

“Associate yourself with men of good quality if you esteem your own reputation; for tis better to be alone than in bad company”

                                                                           George Washington

This is true good people do influence your life and can lead you to a life of success and happiness. I for one surround myself with people who are really joyful.This is a good quote in which he explains that people succeed if they are partnered with people who do and want to do good. But those will fail if they are joined by people who are lazy and are not committed into helping anyone but them selves. I agree with Washington because it is better to be alone rather than sticking with people who only cause trouble.The father of our country George Washington was a very respected man. He was a wise man of ctr. He did many things for us, He even received his own holiday that's how important he is. I mean he was our first president! He once said “Associate yourself with good quality if you esteem your own reputation; for ‘tis better to be alone than in bad company.” This is a very good quote by our former president.George Washington is correct. It is better to be alone than to be with bad company. What that means is that you'd rather be alone than to be with bad people. Associating with men of good quality is way better than this. Having friends like this helps you and encourages you to do good. Having bad friends just puts you down.
