In his tribute, Dr. Norris* said: “We can never again say, as we have said so many times before, ‘Bill, what do you think?’ What his death means is that all of us will have to listen harder than ever to discern the group conscience.”
* Dr John L. Norris, président du Conseil d'administration de AA (chairman of the General Service Board of Alcoholics Anonymous), non-alcoolique, de 1961 à 1978
