WATSON: Thank you, Holmes. Some of these days I may find myself congratulating you.
HOLMES: No marriage without love, Watson.
WATSON: Then why not love? (Placing his hand on HOLMES’S shoulder.)
HOLMES: Absurd, Watson, absurd! I am not for love, nor love for me. It would disturb my reason, unbalance my faculties. Love is like a flaw in the crystal, sand in the clockwork, iron near the magnet. No, no, I have other work in the world.
—The Speckled Band: An Adventure of Sherlock Holmes, a play by Arthur Conan Doyle (1910)
Holmes doesn’t criticise marriage as an institution, nor does he consider the benefits of marriage of convenience which would be quite logical for a practical man for whom romance doesn’t mean much. No, the so-called “cold logician” deems marriage without love unacceptable 👀

All lives end. All hearts are broken. Caring is not an advantage, Sherlock.
