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
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'm also very proud to be a part of a trilogy of films that, if they do nothing else, allow people to check their problems at the door, sit down and have a good time.
Michael J. Fox
In fact, Parkinson's has made me a better person. A better husband, father and overall human being.
Michael J. Fox
As with any turning point or instance when a new road is chosen and an old one forsaken, there are consequences.
Michael J. Fox
