3 quotes from The Molecule of More

  • "Dopamine is not just the pleasure molecule; it is a molecule that drives us to pursue pleasure, often leading us to create bigger dreams, new ideas, and innovations."
  • "Understanding the role of dopamine helps us to recognize that our desires shape not only our choices but also our identities and our actions in life."
  • "The balance between dopamine and other neurotransmitters is crucial: it’s not about having more dopamine, but understanding when to seek more and when to appreciate what we have."
