Without Defense
The fact is that most alcoholics, for reasons yet obscure, have lost the power
of choice in drink. Our so-called will power becomes practically nonexistent.
We are unable, at certain times, to bring into our consciousness with sufficient
force the memory of the suffering and humiliation of even a week or a month
ago. We are without defense against the first drink.
- Alcoholics Anonymous, (There Is A Solution) p. 24
