AA Thought for the Day

August 20, 2004

Strong Language

However intelligent we may have been in other respects,
where alcohol has been involved,
we have been strangely insane.
It's strong language -- but isn't it true?
. . . The actual or potential alcoholic,
with hardly an exception, will be
absolutely unable to stop drinking
on the basis of self-knowledge.

Thought to Ponder....

Nothing is so bad, that a drink won't make worse.
