More quotes by Michael J. Fox
I'm glad I don't have a drinking problem,' I confided, 'because I don't think I'd ever be able to quit.
Michael J. Fox
Listening to people espouse beliefs different from mine is informative, not threatening, because the only thing that can alter my worldview is a new and undeniable truth, and contrary to what Jack Nicholson says in 'A Few Good Men', I CAN handle the truth.
Michael J. Fox
I believe that the majority of times the scale tilts toward the good. It's this amazing thing that rolls on and if we get in the flow of it, that's God. And if we fight it, if we swim the other way, we're swimming away from the purest expression of this life.
Michael J. Fox
I have no choice about whether or not I have Parkinson's. I have nothing but choices about how I react to it. In those choices, there's freedom to do a lot of things in areas that I wouldn't have otherwise found myself in.
Michael J. Fox
One of the great things about Parkinson's, in a superficial way, is it relieved me of vanity. I don't worry about what I look like, because it's literally out of my hands. But on a deeper level, it gives you a real humility, because you have to deal every day with the fact that you compromise.
Michael J. Fox
I have a remarkably normal life.
Michael J. Fox
If one of my kids reads a book for school and I can have a conversation with her about the book and I sense that she gets what the book is about, then it doesn't really matter to me if she gets an A on the paper.
Michael J. Fox
After a year or so I really thought I was Howard Hughes. Here I was at eighteen years old, getting all these checks.
Michael J. Fox
I urge you to be challenged and inspired by what you do not know.
Michael J. Fox
Curiosity may have killed the cat, but it saved my ass.
Michael J. Fox
The laughs mean more to me than the adoration. If two girls walk up to me and one says 'you're cute', I'll say 'thank you', but I appreciate it much more when the other one says 'you make me laugh so much'.
Michael J. Fox
Acceptance doesn't mean resignation it means understanding that something is what it is and that there's got to be a way through it.
Michael J. Fox
If you have doubts about someone, lay on a couple of jokes. If he doesn't find anything funny, your radar should be screaming. Then I would say be patient with people who are negative, because they're really having a hard time.
Michael J. Fox
The story is a testament to the consolations that get me through and give meaning to every area of my life.
Michael J. Fox
I have no argument with those who see in organized religion a template or an imperative to live life according to a prescribed set of beliefs. Just give others the room, within the laws of civil society, to believe or not believe whatever they like.
Michael J. Fox
I think there's a God and I know it's not me.
Michael J. Fox
I am careful not to confuse excellence with perfection. Excellence I can reach for perfection is God's business.
Michael J. Fox
Whatever the situation, just take it for what it is. You don't have to make it worse or better than it is. It just is what it is. Always deal with the honesty, the truth of what something is, and then you've got all kinds of choices.
Michael J. Fox
Acceptance is the key to everything.
Michael J. Fox
I always felt that I came up short in the education department, but I've come to the conclusion that we all get an education.
Michael J. Fox
