“Change is hard, that’s why we can’t do it alone and why it is vital that we have a foundation of hope.”
― Russell Brand, Recovery: Freedom from Our Addiction

“We have been taught that freedom is the freedom to pursue our petty, trivial desires. Real freedom is freedom from our petty, trivial desires.”
― Russell Brand, Recovery: Freedom from Our Addiction

“Part of that change is forgiveness and the willingness to look at our lives and the world differently. Ask yourself ‘Do I really want to change or do I just want to justify staying the way that I am?”
― Russell Brand, Recovery: Freedom from Our Addiction

“the material world is an illusion and its treasures all too temporal. That doesn’t mean you have to live as a monk, although that is one way out of it, it just means you can never quench your spiritual craving through material means. Gratitude for where you are and what you have is one important coordinate for retuning our consciousness. Similarly acceptance.”
― Russell Brand, Recovery: Freedom from Our Addiction
