If you find no one to support you on the spiritual path, walk alone. There is no companionship with the immature.

Some journeys can only be traveled alone.

Some journeys in life can only be traveled alone.

Whoever undertakes a long journey, if he be wise, makes it his business to find out an agreeable companion. How cautious then should he be, who is to take a journey for life, whose fellow-traveler must not part with him but at the grave; his companion at bed and board and sharer of all the pleasures and fatigues of his journey, as the wife must be to the husband! She is no such sort of ware, that a man can be rid of when he pleases: when once that is purchased, no exchange, no sale, no alienation can be made.

Have no friends not equal to yourself.

872. Better be alone than in bad Company.

Long is the night to him who is awake; long is a mile to him who is tired; long is life to the foolish who do not know the true law. 61. If a traveller does not meet with one who is his better, or his equal, let him firmly keep to his solitary journey; there is no companionship with a fool.

Only the solitary seek the truth, and they break with all those who don't love it sufficiently

Never contract friendship with a man that is not better than thyself.

It is better to be alone than in bad company.

If you cannot find a good companion to walk with, walk alone, like an elephant roaming the jungle. It is better to be alone than to be with those who will hinder your progress.
