"The only require-
ment for membership
is a desire to stop us-
ing." "When new members
come to meetings, our sole
interest is in their desire for
freedom from active ad-
diction and how we can
be of help." (It Works,

"No matter who
you are, no matter
how low you've gone,
no matter how grave your
emotional complications -
even your crimes - we still
can't deny you A.A." "The
only requirement or mem-
bership is an honest de-
sire to stop drinking."
(12 & 12, p. 139)
"Dream
as if you will
live forever; Live
as if you will
die today."
