AA Thought for the Day

Not Crusaders
Dr. W. W. Bauer, broadcasting under the auspices of The American Medical Association
in 1946, over the NBC network, said, in part: “Alcoholics Anonymous are no crusaders; not
a temperance society. They know that they must never drink. They help others with similar
problems . . . In this atmosphere the alcoholic often overcomes his excessive concentration
upon himself. Learning to depend upon a higher power and absorb himself in his work with
other alcoholics, he remains sober day by day. The days add up into weeks, the weeks
into months and years.”
- Alcoholics Anonymous, (The Medical View On A.A.) Appendice III
