" An alcoholic is someone who drinks to solve problems created by drinking"

"Today the grass is as green as it gets"

"If you really want to do something, you'll find a way; if you don't, you'll find an excuse"

"If you don't drink today, you're a success today"

"Recovery is like riding a bicycle: you won't fall off unless you stop pedaling."

"Self will says 'I deserve' "

"Don't argue with someone who is never wrong"

"Victimhood can become addictive. As victims, we aren't responsible for our lives; we blame someone else "

"Acceptance does not imply approval"

"Self-pity is an emotion with absolutely no redeeming value"

"Practicing alcoholics who place no value on physical sobriety don't get sober; recovering alcoholics who place no value on emotional sobriety never become contented"
