Swami Turiyananda a disciple of Ramakrishna said (1915) " When I was a young boy, I noticed how my older brothers changed in character after they married. They lost their nobility. Women make men worldly."

I hate the very name of marriage, in regard to a boy or a girl. Do you mean to say that I have to help in putting someone into
bondage, you fool! 

- Swami Vivekananda

Here are some quotes by Franklin

• He that takes a wife takes Care.
• Sally laughs at everything you say. Why? Because she has fine teeth.
• Nothing dries sooner than a Tear.
• One good Husband is worth two good Wives; for the scarcer things are, the more they're valued.
• Marry above thy match and thou'lt get a master.

But do you, everyone, have love for his wife, even as for himself; and let the wife see that she has respect for her husband.

- Ephesians 5:33
