Frank J. Wilstach, comp. A Dictionary of Similes. 1916.

Bachelor

The bachelor who passes through life without marrying, is like a fair mansion left by the builder unfinished; the half that is finished runs to decay from neglect, or becomes at best but a sorry tenement, wanting the addition of that which makes the whole both useful, comfortable, and ornamental.
—Anthony P. Morris
