All the suffering, stress and addiction comes from not realizing you already are what you are looking for.
You can come out of the furnace of trouble two ways: if you let it consume you, you come out a cinder; but there is a kind of metal which refuses to be consumed, and comes out a star.
The initial journey towards sobriety is a delicate balance between insight into one's desire for escape and abstinence from one's addiction.
The dead drug leaves a ghost behind. At certain hours it haunts the house.
Habit is habit, and not to be flung out of the window by any man, but coaxed downstairs a step at a time
The first thing in the human personality that dissolves in alcohol is dignity.
First you take a drink, then the drink takes a drink, then the drink takes you
If you know someone who tries to drown their sorrows, you might tell them sorrows know how to swim.
Addiction doesn't kill the addict. It kills the family, kids and people who tried to help!
What is addiction, really? It is a sign, a signal, a symptom of distress. It is a language that tells us about a plight that must be understood.
Drugs have taught an entire generation of American kids the metric system.
You know you're an alcoholic when you misplace things for like a decade.
Addiction is a symptom of not growing up.
You can get the monkey off your back, but the circus never leaves town.
Addiction begins with the hope that something "out there" can instantly fill up the emptiness inside.
The unfortunate thing about this world is that good habits are so much easier to give up than bad ones.
Quitting smoking is easy, I've done it hundreds of times.
Addiction- When you can give up something any time, as long as it's next Tuesday.
Reality is just a crutch for people who can't handle drugs.
Every form of addiction is bad, no matter whether the narcotic be alcohol or morphine or idealism.
