Birds of a feather flock together

मृगा मृगैः सङ्गमनुव्रजन्ति
गावश्च गोभिस्तुरगास्तुरङ्गैः ।
मूर्खाश्च मूर्खैः सुधियः सुधीभिः
समानशीलव्यसनेन सख्यम् ॥
- पञ्चतन्त्रम्

Deer are accompanied by deer, cows by cows and horses by horses. Similarly, fools befriend fools and wise people enjoy the company of wise. Friendship is natural among like-minded people with similar hobbies.

Like likes like.
Birds of a feather flock together.
