人们屡屡由于兴致、喜好、性情互相融洽而成为伙伴，有的是同舟共济，有的是臭味相投。

“物以类聚，人以群分”，中文俗话，比如同类的东西常聚在一同，合得来的人相聚成群，是伙伴之间同舟共济的统称，可分开使用。与英文习语“birds of a feather flock together”意思相近，表现“People who have similar interests, ideas, or characteristics tend to seek out or associate with one another”。

例句：

乔治：你为什么以为唐纳德靠不住？

George: Why do you think Donald is dishonest?

内德：他的伙伴都靠不住。物以类聚，人以群分。Ned: All his friends are dishonest. Birds of a feather flock together.

我不休以为艾米很狂，而如今她和谁人势利的男孩路易斯在约会。真是物以类聚。

I always thought Amy was pretentious, and now she’s going out with that snobbish boy, Louis. Birds of a feather flock together.
