No, I got a GED in my 30s. My kids know that I never stop learning, and they know I love reading. I have books overflowing everywhere. I am current on today's events and I read the paper every day, and we talk about it, so they see that appetite.

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
Image
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.

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.

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.

My notion of spirituality was different than it is now, but even if I'd been the most fundamentalist of believers, I would have assumed that God had better things to do than arbitrarily smite me with shaking palsy.

After a year or so I really thought I was Howard Hughes. Here I was at eighteen years old, getting all these checks.

The more I expect, the more unhappy I am going to be. The more I accept, the more serene I am.
Michael J. Fox
Image
I truly believe that we have infinite levels of power that we don't even know are available to us.

Family is not an important thing. It's everything.

Image
As for my own truncated secondary education, my head was in the clouds as my mom would say, or if you asked my father, up my ass.

I might have skipped class, but I didn't miss any lessons.

No matter how much fame you have, it's not something that belongs to you. If I'm famous, that doesn't belong to me-that belongs to you. If you can't remember who I am, I'm no longer famous.

Image
I think I benefited from being equal parts ambitious and curious. And of the two, curiosity has served me best.
Michael J. Fox
Image
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
Image
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
Image
The way I look at life, and the way I look at the reality of Parkinson's, is that sometimes it's frustrating and sometimes it's funny. I need to look at it that way, and I think other people will look at it that way.

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.

If one of my kids reads a book for school and I can have a conversation with her about the book and I sense that she gets what the book is about, then it doesn't really matter to me if she gets an A on the paper.
