More quotes by Helen Fisher
People compose poetry, novels, sitcoms - for love.
Helen Fisher

Helen Fisher
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
Men are so visual, they see a woman who appeals to them physically, and it will trigger the romantic love system faster.
Helen Fisher
We all have restlessness in long-term relationships.
Helen Fisher
Throughout evolution, ostracism was death indeed.
Helen Fisher
Any kind of novelty or excitement drives up dopamine in the brain, and dopamine is associated with romantic love.
Helen Fisher
Mothers really were not built to raise babies not only by themselves, but with only a partner. For millions of years, a woman had much more than just her husband to help rear her young... This whole idea of 'it takes a village to raise a child' is exactly how we're supposed to live.
Helen Fisher
Despite the myth that men are less committed, they are predisposed to desire marriage.
