"avoid associating with sinners"

"The weak should avoid associating with sinners, on account of the danger in which they stand of being perverted by them. But it is commendable for the perfect, of whose perversion there is no fear, to associate with sinners that they may convert them."

     St. Thomas Aquinas, Summa theologiae II-II.25.6.ad 5, trans. FEDPCorpus Thomisticum
