About This Quote
When people talk about their vices, they often act as though they are distant relatives. They say things like, "I know it's bad, but I can't help myself," or "It's not so bad," or "I don't mind so much." They say things like that because they don't want to admit that their vices are running their lives. If you think about it, this is a silly and even immature attitude. Either you own up to your vices and accept them as part of yourself, or you own up to them and find a way to deal with them.
