5.2.61

‘‘Carañce nādhigaccheyya, seyyaṃ sadisamattano;
Ekacariyaṃ daḷhaṃ kayirā, natthi bāle sahāyatā’’ti.

61. Should a man fail to find a companion who is his better or his equal,
He should resolutely pursue a solitary course. One cannot be friends with a simpleton.

Eugene Watson Burlingame 1921, Buddhist Legends (Harvard Oriental Series 28–30)
