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


"The minute we put our work on a service plane, the alcoholic
commences to rely upon our assistance rather than upon God. He
clamors for this or that, claiming he cannot master alcohol until
his material needs are cared for. Nonsense. Some of us have taken very
hard knocks to learn this truth: Job or no job — wife or no wife — we
simply do not stop drinking so long as we place dependence upon other
people ahead of dependence on God."


~Alcoholics Anonymous, 1st. Edition, Working With Others, pg. 98~
