People kill for love. They die for love.
Your face and head give more information about you than any other body part.
I think the happiness we find, we make.
In that early-love stage, you're in that state of exhilaration. You talk till dawn. You become obsessed with 'What does he think?' 'Does he like me?' 'Does he think I'm fat?'
A woman will toss her head and a man will say, 'Oh she's trying to pick me up,' when in fact she's not doing that at all. So, women actually have to be a little careful with what they do, because men will pick up things that they didn't mean.
I suspect privacy is a very new concept to humanity.
I have always been interested in how you can walk into a room and there will be 40 people there and you are immediately drawn to one.
Every time you cuddle with your children, you're likely to be driving down your testosterone.
Since when is anyone truly honest with anyone?
There's every reason to think SSRIs blunt your ability to fall and stay in love.
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.
More and more of us live segmented, compartmentalized lives. This isn't natural. For millions of years, our forebears knew everyone around them and everyone knew them.
Love is not an emotion; it is a drive.
There's more than one person on the planet. When you're madly in love, that's not what you think.
