“We can achieve no liberation from the alcohol obsession until we become willing to deal with those character defects which have landed us in that helpless condition ... fear, anger, and pride ... rebellion and self-righteousness ... laziness and irresponsibility ... foolish rationalization and outright dishonesty ... wrong dependencies and destructive power-driving.”

AA Co-Founder, Bill W., November 1960, “Freedom Under God: The Choice Is Ours”, The Language of the Heart
