Addiction, although cunning, baffling, and powerful, has within it the seeds of self-knowledge and a better life
Betty Ford describes addiction as a dilemma that is susceptible to solution.
Addiction to alcohol and other drugs is at the heart of many of the world’s most difficult human problems, from crime and AIDS to health care costs and highway safety, from decreased productivity to family breakdown. Of all the many causes of these modern dilemmas, the one that is most susceptible to solution is addiction. Addiction, although cunning, baffling, and powerful, has within it the seeds of self-knowledge and a better life for individuals, families, and communities.
