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
