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.

Michael J. Fox
By the time I entered high school, I had forsaken academics altogether in favor of my burgeoning acting career.
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
I think there's a God and I know it's not me. I don't have a set of tenets, but I live an ethical life.
Michael J. Fox
Life is what you put into it and how much you take out of it. You put in more than is expected, and you take out less than you want.
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 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
A lot of times, when you have a disability, one of the things you deal with is other people's projections of what your experience is and their fear about it, and not seeing the experience you're having. There's nothing horrifying about it to me. It is what I deal with. It is my reality and my life, but it's not horrible.
Michael J. Fox
The story is a testament to the consolations that get me through and give meaning to every area of my life.
