Scratching an itch is pleasurable, BUT

Scratching an itch is pleasurable, but you would never purposely sit in poison ivy just to scratch your ass. -"Annie Grace:, [This Naked Mind: ]

Ive been listening to “This Naked Mind” on audiotape while driving to and from work. I really like this quote from her book!

So when I get that “itch”, I think of it in this way. Alchohol is my posion ivy. And im sure as hell not going to sit in posion ivy just to scratch my ass.

Any other quotes that have stayed with you guys?

“Happiness is not pleasure, it’s victory.”

One is too many, and a thousand never enough.

This really helped me with quitting smoking and I use it for alcohol too, now.

You cannot think your way into better actions, you must act your way into better thinking.
