Michael J. Fox
You've probably read in People that I'm a nice guy - but when the doctor first told me I had Parkinson's, I wanted to kill him.
Michael J. Fox
I happen to be a Parkinson's patient. I'm not fearful of my condition or my future - but if someone is looking in my eyes for fear, then they see their own fear reflected back at them.
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
My wife is Jewish, and therefore, it's my children's birthright to be Jewish.
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
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
If you want to be an agent of change, it starts with you and what you're made of.
Michael J. Fox
I've learned some exciting things - mostly, that people really want to help each other and that, if you can lay out a vision for them - and that vision is sincere and genuine - they'll get interested.
Michael J. Fox
