True Capitalist Acolyte: "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

ColeTrain: That sums up Washington in a nutshell "'tis better to be alone than in bad company."

". . . Morris. . . walked up to Washington, bowed, shook hands, and then placed his left hand on Washington's shoulder and said, `My dear General, I am very happy to see you look so well.' The response was immediate and icy. Washington reached up, removed the hand, stepped back, and fixed his eyes in silence on Morris, until Morris retreated into the crowd. The company looked on in dismay, and no one ever tried it again."
