“The human mind and what we've achieved with it is remarkable. But it does not come close to what we can do, be, see and heal with our hearts”

Russell Brand
“The condition in extreme is identifiable but the less obvious version of addiction is still painful and arguably worse because we simply adapt to living in pain.”
Russell Brand, Recovery: Freedom from Our Addictions
