"Associate yourself with men of good quality if you esteem your own reputation; for 'tis better to be alone than in bad company."

But if you stay alone then the worst thing that can happen is getting bored but its always better than doing drugs and drinking with "friends". Bad company can be those people that you call "friends". True friends wouldn't make you do anything bad and maybe just maybe if they ask you to and you say no to them they would stop and not keep pressuring you to do such a bad thing. Being with friends may be fun and all but sometimes you are better off alone. Just do the right thing and be responsible and safe.
