Kimball (past lds prophet and president) always kept an eye out for romance. Brethren, he instructed some departing missionaries, I want you to understand that it is not to be as it has been heretofore.

Plural marriage... is calculated in its nature to severely try the women even to nearly tear their heart strings out of them... - Journal and Autobiography of Joseph Lee Robinson, p. 50

Kimball, quoted in Jennie Anderson Froiseth, ed., The Women of Mormonism: or the Story of Polygamy As Told by the Victims Themselves, 1886; see Abanes, One Nation Under Gods, p. 295
- The Lion of the Lord, by Stanley P. Hirshon, pp. 129-130

Stop quoting other quotes from other quotes from other quotes to the point where it is ridiculous.

Jesus is my Savior, Soon-Coming King, the Great Jehovah, the Creator, my Redeemer. I love Him. This is Heavenly Father’s plan by the power of the Holy Ghost. Amen.
