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
Only a few of us will admit it, but actors will sometimes read a script like this: bullshit...bullshit...my part...blah, blah, blah...my part...bullshit.

I got sick of turning on the TV and seeing my face.
Michael J. Fox
I can't be smug, because I know that you can lose anything at any point. And I can't be angry, because I haven't lost it.
Michael J. Fox
There's an idea I came across a few years ago that I love: My happiness grows in direct proportion to my acceptance and in inverse proportion to my expectations. That's the key for me. If I can accept the truth of 'This is what I'm facing - not what can I expect but what I am experiencing now' - then I have all this freedom to do other things.
Michael J. Fox
I don't have any affirmations, I don't have any of that stuff. My natural state is to look at things as possibilities and as opportunities.
Michael J. Fox
I have a remarkably normal life.
Michael J. Fox
If Spirituality is that you're humble in the face of forces greater than you and you believe those forces are more inclined toward being good than being bad, then I'm a spiritual person.
Michael J. Fox
I'm going to marry a Jewish woman because I like the idea of getting up Sunday morning and going to the deli.
Michael J. Fox
When I was 20, I would have taken a bullet in the head to never have to be 35.
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
You suffer the blow, but you capitalize on the opportunity left in its wake.
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
I definitely believe in a higher power.
Michael J. Fox
It is ironic that in the same year we celebrate the 50th anniversary of the discovery of DNA, some would have us ban certain forms of DNA medical research. Restricting medical research has very real human consequences, measured in loss of life and tremendous suffering for patients and their families.
Michael J. Fox
Family is not an important thing. It's everything.
Michael J. Fox
I was eccentric, even as a kid. I was an early reader, an early talker. I was very curious in a way that maybe the other kids weren't. I was a little more outgoing.
Michael J. Fox
The more I expect, the more unhappy I am going to be. The more I accept, the more serene I am.
Michael J. Fox
I have so many things that I say to my kids, I just drive them crazy.
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
