Let's Go (So We Can Get Back): A Memoir of Recording and Discording with Wilco, Etc.

by Jeff Tweedy

One of the things that comes up a lot in recovery from addiction is the notion that you’re only as sick as your secrets.

Life is short and you should wake up in the morning feeling excited about what you do. And if you don’t and you can afford to stop, you should stop. Even if it makes some people angry.

I don’t believe that your kids should look at you as infallible. They should be able to look at you as a person who is struggling and persevering.

I think everyone has their comfort zone that they would prefer not to leave. But not everyone allows that feeling of inconvenience to become a coddled and catered-to dysfunction. Codependence is what they call it, I guess.
