Marriage is not a good, but it is a good in comparison with fornication....
Continence is a greater good than marriage. But I am aware of some that
murmur: if all men should abstain from intercourse, how will the human race
exist? Would that all would abstain; much more speedily would the City of
God be filled, and the end of the world hastened.
-- St. Augustine (354-430 CE) "On the Good of Marriage"
