Analysis of Ch 08 On Rules For Conduct In Life - Maxim 24
Sa di 1210 (Shiraz) – 1291 (Shiraz)
Whoever associates with bad people will see no good.
If an angel associates with a demon
He will learn from him fear, fraud and hypocrisy.
Of the wicked thou canst learn only wickedness.
A wolf will not take to sewing jackets.
