Ruskin on Marriage.

Letter from Mr. Ruskiu. No man should marry until he has made himself worthy of a good wife and able to maintain her and his children in comfort. Andheshould choose her as he would choose his destiny—with range of choice from earth to heaven. No man should marry under twenty-four; no girl under eighteen.
