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


"But there was always the curious mental phenomenon that parallel
with our sound reasoning there inevitably ran some insanely trivial
excuse for taking the first drink. Our sound reasoning failed to hold
us in check. The insane idea won out. Next day we would ask
ourselves, in all earnestness and sincerity, how it could have
happened."


~Alcoholics Anonymous, 1st. Edition,
