Bill W. at the 1965 International Convention in Toronto, CA

Bill Wilson, speaking at the 4th International AA Convention in Toronto, Canada in 1965. He gives this quite beautiful clear and unvarnished account of AA’s spiritual origins, beginning with Dr. Carl Jung.

It is easy to see why this short and simple address is counted among his most eloquent.
