“It’s hard to get enough of something that almost works.”

What an absolutely brilliant line about addiction:

“It’s hard to get enough of something that almost works.”

—————-

It *almost* works. So we say, “give me more, give me more,” but we remain unsatisfied.

Addiction is not just about drugs: We could be addicted to overwork, to status, to money, to power, to even love.

It *almost* works.

Incredible insight.
