"Some
A.A. speakers say,
'A.A. is a selfish program.' The word 'selfish' ordinarily implies that
one is acquisitive, demanding, and thoughtless of the welfare of others.
Of course, the A.A. way of life does not at all imply such undesirable
traits.
If we cannot or will not
achieve sobriety, then we become truly lost, right in the here and now.
Therefore, our own recovery and spiritual growth have to come first - a right
and necessary kind of self-concern."
c. 1967, As Bill Sees It,
page 81
