Quote by Miguel de Cervantes

Tell me thy company, and I'll tell thee what thou art.

Tell me thy company, and I'll tell thee what thou art.

Summary

This quote implies that one's character can be understood by the type of people they associate with. It suggests that the company one keeps influences their behavior and values. Essentially, it reflects the idea that individuals tend to adopt the attitudes and habits of those they spend time with. Therefore, if someone surrounds themselves with positive and morally upright individuals, it is likely that they too will possess such qualities. On the other hand, if one consistently associates with questionable or negative characters, they may be seen in a similar light.

The complete life, the perfect pattern, includes old age as well as youth and maturity. The beauty of the morning and the radiance of noon are good, but it would be a very silly person who drew the curtains and turned on the light in order to shut out the tranquillity of the evening. Old age has its pleasures, which, though different, are not less than the pleasures of youth.
