...the idea...

"that somehow, someday he will control and enjoy his drinking is the great obsession of every abnormal drinker. The persistence of this illusion is astounding. Many pursue it into the gates of insanity or death...We learned that we had to fully concede to our innermost selves that we were alcoholics. This is the first step in recovery."

-Alcoholics Anonymous, p.30
