AA Thought for the Day

Plain Insanity
He had much knowledge about himself as an alcoholic. Yet all reasons
for not drinking were easily pushed aside in favor of the foolish idea that
he could take whiskey if only he mixed it with milk!
Whatever the precise definition of the word may be, we call this plain insanity.
How can such a lack of proportion, of the ability to think straight, be called anything else?
- Alcoholics Anonymous, "More About Alcoholism,"pp. 36 - 37
Thought to Ponder
The alcoholic is in no greater peril than when he takes sobriety for granted.
