Addiction can take so many forms. Sure, we can become addicted to drugs or alcohol, but many people have been seduced inside by the lure of money, gambling, sex, power and even love.

Through addiction quotes, we can find inspiration and strength that allow us to break the shackles of our addiction and move beyond it. At first, in small steps, eventually greater strides, finding solace that others, through their addiction quotes, have shared their own travails, struggles, setbacks, and hopefully, victory.
