I don't burden myself too much with others' expectations - or even my own expectations.

Michael J. Fox
My happiness grows in direct proportion to my acceptance, and in inverse proportion to my expectations.
Michael J. Fox
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.
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
I definitely believe in a higher power.
Michael J. Fox
I don't set a whole lot of goals. It smacks a little bit of will to me, and I find that will is not the way to go for me.
Michael J. Fox
The thing that brings people to wail at a wall, or face Mecca, or to go to church, is a search for that feeling of purity.
Michael J. Fox
Pay attention to what's happening around you. Read the book before you see the movie. Remember, though you, alone, are responsible for your own happiness, its still okay to feel responsible for someone else's. Live and to learn.
Michael J. Fox
I don't subscribe to any particular doctrine or ideology. I just think that there's kind of a good and bad, the good being life in its purest, happiest form, and the other being the darker side of existence.
Michael J. Fox
I still play hockey every now and then, and I still golf. But my biggest exercise is walking my big dog in the park every day.
