Text Quotes
People have often asked me whether what I know about love has spoiled it for me. And I just simply say, ‘Hardly.’ You can know every single ingredient in a piece of chocolate cake, and then when you sit down and eat that cake, you can still feel that joy (Helen Fisher Quotes)
The Great Depression of the 1930s saw more American unmarried women working from nine to five, mostly in repetitive, boring, subordinate, dead-end jobs. But the number of working women doubled between 1870 and 1940. During World War II it doubled once again (Helen Fisher Quotes)
The Internet lets women use words, which is their natural tool. Little girls speak in more complex, grammatical sentences than little boys do, and women never lose that superiority in verbal ability (Helen Fisher Quotes)
There were real reasons that you were attracted to somebody originally. The brain doesn’t pick willy-nilly. Unless you part ways hating each other for some reason, that mechanism could get triggered again. You can literally fall in love again (Helen Fisher Quotes)
Women apparently are quite drawn to men who have differences rather than similarities in their histocompatibility system. They pick it up by smell, and they can pick it up from kissing (Helen Fisher Quotes)
You fall in love with somebody who fits within what I call your ‘love map,’ an unconscious list of traits that you build in childhood as you grow up. And I also think that you gravitate to certain people, actually, with somewhat complementary brain systems (Helen Fisher Quotes)
Your sweetheart calls you by another’s name. His eyes linger too long on your best friend. He talks with excitement about a girl at work. And the fire catches. Jealousy - that sickening combination of possessiveness, suspicion, rage, and humiliation - can overtake your mind and threaten your very core as you contemplate your rival (Helen Fisher Quotes)
People live for love. They kill for love. They die for love. They have songs, poems, novels, sculptures, paintings, myths, legends. It’s one of the most powerful brain systems on Earth for both great joy and great sorrow (Helen Fisher Quotes)
Psychologists maintain that the dizzy feeling of intense romantic love lasts only about 18 months to-at best-three years (Helen Fisher Quotes)
Men have a psychological need to show off their courage and strength. When he sees you talking to another guy, that instinct kicks in and he jumps to protect you and prove he’s worthy of your love. (Helen Fisher Quotes)
There’s a lot of talk about the positive aspects of love. We as a society downplay the danger, the anxiety, and the disappointment. We romanticize romance. (Helen Fisher Quotes)
At first I assumed hate was the opposite of love. But it isn’t. The opposite of love is indifference. (Helen Fisher Quotes)
You know, when you’ve been dumped, the one thing you love to do is just forget about this human being, and then go on with your life - but no, you just love them harder. (Helen Fisher Quotes)
Romantic love is an obsession. It possesses you. You lose your sense of self. You can’t stop thinking about another human being. (Helen Fisher Quotes)
Touch is the mother of the senses. Not only are women more sensitive when they touch, but they’re also more sensitive to being touched. (Helen Fisher Quotes)
Any time you choose not to hide your tattoo, you’re limiting your social sphere, because they’re not popular in big business. (Helen Fisher Quotes)
Women are better at reading body language everywhere in the world. As a matter of fact, it’s associated with the female hormone estrogen. Women are better at figuring out of tone of voice, reading your face and posture and gesture. (Helen Fisher Quotes)
There are cognitive processes and limbic reactions associated with basic emotions. And you can change brain chemistry, but you’re still not going to change memories and experiences in a human being. (Helen Fisher Quotes)
You can get into a very fancy car and know everything about the engine, but when you drive in that car, you feel that rush. In the same way, I think the more you know about love, the more you can enjoy it. And knowing about your personality type, who you are and what kind of person you’re dealing with gives you a great leg up. (Helen Fisher Quotes)
For so many generations, a woman’s only career path was to marry well and to marry up. Those days have changed. (Helen Fisher Quotes)
The women’s movement is just a symptom of basic changes in the economy that are favoring women (Helen Fisher Quotes)
Today, most women are surrounded by ingenious gadgets. They don’t grow the peas or raise the chicken that they serve for dinner; instead they hunt and gather in the grocery store. They go through catalogs or department stores to buy clothes instead of shearing sheep, carding wool, and weaving cloth for skirts and coats and blankets. (Helen Fisher Quotes)
Women have a better sense of color and a better color memory. They’re more likely to notice when something doesn’t match; more likely to notice what you’re wearing. (Helen Fisher Quotes)
A hundred years ago, if you had a child out of marriage, you’d be a social disgrace. Today women feel comfortable enough economically and culturally to bring up a child without a recognized commitment from a man. (Helen Fisher Quotes)
We still have community, but we don’t seem to have local community. Even in a small town where you know your neighbors and your mother’s down the street, they’re not in arm’s length. (Helen Fisher Quotes)
We’re not very dangerous animals; we don’t have a horn like a rhino or quills like a porcupine. (Helen Fisher Quotes)
When you’re in the throes of this romantic love, it’s overwhelming - you’re out of control, you’re irrational, you’re going to the gym at 6 A.M. every day - Why? Because she’s there. (Helen Fisher Quotes)
You’ve got to remember that men are men and women are women. And although a lot of similarities, there are some real differences. (Helen Fisher Quotes)
When people tell you to walk a certain way, it’s like not thinking of a purple tomato. You can’t not do it. (Helen Fisher Quotes)
A lot of people head into courtship looking for fireworks. Don’t pass up a chance by dumping someone after a first date because you don’t feel the fireworks. The fireworks can happen at any time and be maintained. (Helen Fisher Quotes)
