I never got this one, I would not join my best mate sitting in jail because that's just dumb.
I'd bail him out with interest though.
The point of that wisdon is that your were right there with your best mate when the trouble happened. As your were involved in the trouble you also get arrested as well. Thats why your sitting next to him.
"A true friend stabs you in the front" - Oscar Wilde
And one of my favourite poems:
"If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you
But make allowance for their doubting too,
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:
If you can dream--and not make dreams your master,
If you can think--and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools:
If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it all on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breath a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on!"
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with kings--nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you;
If all men count with you, but none too much,
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And--which is more--you'll be a Man, my son!"
"If" by Rudyard Kipling.

Though my body be devoured by the darkness,
my heart will remain untouched because our friends are in our hearts;
as long as we never forget them, our hearts will be one.

@ Dox, HE and Kurnous - I will take all your words for it, I was just saying unless I was guilty I wouldn't go to jail for anyone, they aren't really your best mate if they want you to go to jail for/with them.
Endlessly repeating the same process hoping for a different outcome.

unless your best mate is your girlfriend lol
I still wouldn't go to jail for my girlfriend lol although it does make that saying worth a little more as I'd possibly be there with her i.e. the ole' story, guy tries it on in town, I hit him, we both go jail for the night.

Odd yes
there is a difference,i think its more worth going to jail with your girlfriend if you really really love her than for a mate,my two cents
