:)I have to admit, I'm a sucker for really, really good and
profound recovery-related quotes that convey deep philosophy and
colorful inspiration. This will be my virtual collection of
quotes; I don't even care if you want to say that I'm a
cornball! (But if you have a good quote, feel free to post it
here!! ;D)
"It does not matter how slowly you go as long as you do not
stop." -Confucius
"The goal isn’t to be sober. The goal is to love yourself so
much that you don’t need to drink."
"I am not defined by my relapses, but by my decision to remain
in recovery despite them."
C'mon, gimme some more!

I actually LOVE the very simple, pared down quotes, too, that
you can tend to find in Daily Reflections, and even the Big
Book.
...where alcohol has been involved, we have been strangely
insane. -Daily Reflections
The spiritual life is not a theory. We have to live it. -Daily
Reflections
Frequent contact with newcomers and with each other is the
bright spot of our lives. -Daily Reflections
Wise, wise words. ;D

I love these quotes Lj ;D
here are some more...
“Hope begins in the dark, the stubborn hope that if you just
show up and try to do the right thing, the dawn will come. You
wait and watch and work: you don’t give up.” ~ Anne Lamott
“Incarceration without recovery programming is ineffective for
people who are coping with addiction. It’s common sense:
Isolating and punishing doesn’t work. Love, inclusion, and help
do. ~ Ryan Hampton
“Recovery is all about using our power to change our beliefs
that are based on faulty data.” ~ Kevin McCormack
“In a moment of clarity, out of nowhere, I saw that when I
believed my thoughts I suffered and when I questioned my
thoughts I didn’t suffer, and I have come to see that this is
true for every human being. ~ Bryon Katie
“By changing the way I interact with my drinker, I will help him
come to the decision that entering treatment will improve his
life.” ~ Robert Meyers, PhD
