1) What we really have is a daily reprieve contingent on the maintenance of our spiritual condition.-ALCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS, p. 85
2) I have got rid of most of my inner conflicts. I was always at war with myself. I was doing things that I did not want to do. I was waking up in strange places and wondering how I got there. I was full of recklessness when I was drunk and full of remorse when I was sober. My life didn’t make sense. It was full of broken resolves and frustrated hopes and plans. A.A. taught me how to get organized and to stop fighting against myself. Have I got rid of inner conflicts? ~Twenty Four Hours A Day
3) We sometimes hear humility defined as the state of being “teachable.” In that sense, most of us in The Program who are able to stay free of active addiction have acquired at least a small account of humility, or we never would have learned to stay away from the first drink and similar destructive acts for those of us who are powerless over our respective addictions. Do I see increasing humility as a pathway to continuing improvements? ~A Day At A Time
4) With the first three steps, you get the courage to work the rest. When you work the rest, you get rid of the garbage so you can work the first three. ~ Walk Softly And Carry A Big Book
