Arrow Big Book Quote

*~*~*~*~*^ Big Book Quote ^*~*~*~*~*

"Some day we hope that Alcoholics Anonymous will help the public to
a better realization of the gravity of the alcoholic problem, but we
shall be of little use if our attitude is one of bitterness or
hostility. Drinkers will not stand for it.

After all, our problems were of our own making. Bottles were only a
symbol. Besides, we have stopped fighting anybody or anything. We
have to!"

~Alcoholics Anonymous,1st Edition,
Working With Others, pg. 103~

I don't think, the public at large cares as long as we continue to kill people in car accidents.

We take a worse hit then, the person, playing with their cell phone, radio, etc.
