Chanakya
A wise man should marry a virgin of a respectable family even if she is deformed. He should not marry one of a low-class family, through beauty. Marriage in a family of equal status is preferable.

Chanakya
If one has a good disposition, what other virtue is needed? If a man has fame, what is the value of other ornamentation?
