“One night after a Step Two meeting, I decided to find out what those courageous early members who put our Twelve Steps together really meant by sanity. I was a little surprised to find that my dictionary defined it as the quality of being sound of mind, sound of judgment, reasonable and rational in one’s thoughts … As I sat there mulling over the definition, an idea occurred to me: ‘This is what I’m to be restored to — sound, reasonable, rational thinking.’”
“Sanity Clause,” Shenandoah, Iowa, February 1982, Step By Step
