AA Big Book quotes

[severity_softly]

An alcoholic in his cups is an unlovely creature.

~ AA Big Book, page 16 of the online edition


At a certain point in the drinking of every alcoholic, he passes into a state where the most powerful desire to stop drinking is of no avail. This tragic situation has already arrived in practically every case long before it is suspected.

I actually quite like the first quote. Seems a poetic way to put it. This is just in the first two chapters, though, before all the "ZOMG AA IS AMAZING AND WE WILL HEAL YOU" shit. But I posted these because I want to be able to come back to them.

Ohhhh..I apologize if I overreacted, but I worry about you and took the first quote the wrong way. But I hope things are going well for you right now. *hugs*
