"Our stories disclose in a general way what we used to be like, what happened, and what we are like now. If you have decided you want what we have and are willing to go to any length to get it — then you are ready to take certain steps.
At some of these we balked. We thought we could find an easier, softer way. But we could not. With all the earnestness at our command, we beg of you to be fearless and thorough from the very start. Some of us have tried to hold on to our old ideas and the result was nil until we let go absolutely"
~ Alcoholics Anonymous page 58

sober sites.
"To be gravely affected, one does not necessarily have to
drink a long time nor take the quantities some of us have. This is particularly
true of women. Potential female alcoholics often turn into the real thing and
are gone beyond recall in a few years."
