Always be available to your kids. Because if you say, 'Give me five minutes, give me ten minutes,' it'll be 15, it'll be 20. And then when you get there, the shine will have worn off whatever it is they wanted to share with you.

More quotes by Michael J. Fox
I really love being alive. I love my family and my work. I love the opportunity I have to do things. That's what happiness is.
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
If you want to be an agent of change, it starts with you and what you're made of.
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 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'm kind of private and I keep things inside a lot, but it's been so wonderful to realize that people care about you in a very deep way and that there is some bond between an actor and his audience. I don't even know how to describe that feeling.
Michael J. Fox
My natural state is one that's affected by the shortage of dopamine production in my brain. So my natural state is to be halting and at times tremulous and kind of just physically disturbed. I mean, that's my natural state, given the situation in my brain. But I'm always as happy either way. And so when it comes to me, body language lies.
Michael J. Fox
When prescribing one of the drugs I take, my doctor warned me of a common side effect: exaggerated, intensely vivid dreams. To be honest, I've never really noticed the difference. I've always dreamt big.
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
Look at the choices you have, not the choices that have been taken away from you. In them, there are whole worlds of strength and new ways to look at things.
Michael J. Fox
If you allow for the possibilities of something better, you move toward it instinctively.
Michael J. Fox
I don't look at life as a battle or as a fight. I don't think I'm scrappy. I'm accepting.
Michael J. Fox
I think there's a God and I know it's not me.
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
In my 50s I'll be dancing at my children's weddings.
Michael J. Fox
The only thing worse than an opportunity you don't deserve is blowing an opportunity.
Michael J. Fox
Zoos are becoming facsimiles - or perhaps caricatures - of how animals once were in their natural habitat. If the right policies toward nature were pursued, we would need no zoos at all.
Michael J. Fox
If you have one foot in yesterday and one foot in tomorrow, you're pissing all over today.
Michael J. Fox
So I never spend a lot of time analyzing why people respond to my work. But I think that it's just the joy, a passion for life, that I think has always been in my characters. Beyond that, I'm just grateful for it.
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.
