Number One Offender
Resentment is the "number one" offender. It destroys more alcoholics than
anything else. From it stem all forms of spiritual disease, for we have been
not only mentally and physically ill, we have been spiritually sick. When the
spiritual malady is overcome, we straighten out mentally and physically.
- Alcoholics Anonymous, (How It Works) p. 64
Thought to Ponder . . .
Resentment is like taking poison and waiting for the other person to die.
AA-related 'Alconym'
