Alcoholism: A Two-Fold Condition
"We hope [to make] clear the distinction between the alcoholic and the nonalcoholic. If, when you honestly want to, you find you cannot quit entirely, or if when drinking, you have little control over the amount you take, you are probably alcoholic. If that be the case, you may be suffering from an illness which only a spiritual experience will conquer."
("Alcoholics Anonymous", the book, page 44

Powerlessness - A Natural Human Condition
"We could wish to be moral, we could wish to be philosophically comforted, in fact, we could will these things with all our might, but the needed power wasn't there. Our human resources, as marshalled by the will, were not sufficient; they failed utterly." ("Alcoholics Anonymous, the book, page 45)
