Edison?s greatest achievement came in 1879 when he invented the electric company. Edison?s design was a brilliant adaptation of the simple electrical circuit: the electric company sends electricity through a wire to a customer then immediately gets the electricity back through another wire then (this is the brilliant part) sends it right back to the customer again. This means that an electric company can sell a customer the same batch of electricity thousands of times a day and never get caught…the last year any new electricity was generated in the United States was 1937; the electric companies have been merely re-selling it ever since which is why they have so much free time to apply for rate increases.
Misery loves company.
Learning makes a man fit company for himself.
A man is known by the company his mind keeps.

Tell me what company thou keepst and Ill tell thee what thou art.
The deep joy we take in the company of people with whom we have just recently fallen in love is undisguisable.
A man is known by the books he reads.
A man is known by the silence he keeps.
A man of wit could often be embarrassed without the company of fools.
If misery loves company misery has company enough.
To err is human but it is against company policy.
Good company and good discourse are the very sinews of virtue.
A man is known by the company he avoids.
