Dhammapada 61 [Khuddaka Nikaya]


5 - Balavagga, The Fool
2 - Mahakassapa saddhiviharika Vatthu
Carance nadhigaccheyya,
seyyam sadisamattano;

ekacariyaram dalham kayira,
natthi bale sahayata.

61: If a person seeking a companion cannot find one who is better than or equal to him, let him resolutely go on alone; there can be no companionship with a fool.
