"Five behaviours draw a person perpetually, and
separating from them is difficult. Therefore, one must be careful of them, lest
he become attached to them. All of them involve very bad traits. They are:
"Tale-bearing;
Speaking harmfully of others;
Anger;
Thinking negatively of others [and as some explain, plotting
to harm them];
Joining the wicked, such that one learns from his deeds and
they are engraved upon his heart…"
(Rambam, Mishneh Torah, Laws of Repentance 4:5)
