		<description><![CDATA[That is my favorite phrases in the book &#8220;Alcoholics Anonymous.&#8221;  It is part of chapter 1, Bill&#8217;s Story and it is in a place where he has described his life and his alcoholism to that point in pretty graphic and heartbreaking detail.  &#8220;Gradually things got worse,&#8221; he says, though one can hardly imagine how.  Things [...]]]></description>

I place the other in a position of superiority - and then when I am condescended to I resent them.
