More quotes by Michael J. Fox
I think there's a God and I know it's not me.
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
Whatever the situation, just take it for what it is. You don't have to make it worse or better than it is. It just is what it is. Always deal with the honesty, the truth of what something is, and then you've got all kinds of choices.
Michael J. Fox
The moment I understood this - that my Parkinson's was the one thing I wasn't going to change - I started looking at the things I could change, like the way research is funded.
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.
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
Curiosity may have killed the cat, but it saved my ass.
Michael J. Fox
When I was 20, I would have taken a bullet in the head to never have to be 35.
Michael J. Fox
I see possibilities in everything. For everything that's taken away, something of greater value has been given.
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
I take the medication for myself so I can transact, not for anyone else. But I am aware that it is empowering for people to see what I do and, for the most part, people in the Parkinson's community are just really happy that Parkinson's is getting mentioned, and not in a pitying way.
Michael J. Fox
My wife is Jewish, and therefore, it's my children's birthright to be Jewish.
Michael J. Fox
I didn't just want to be a poster boy and sign on to publicize somebody else's method of operations. If I was going to put myself out there, I wanted to make sure that it was to an end. So I got involved with this congressional hearing about Parkinson's being underfunded.
Michael J. Fox
When life takes away, something of greater value is always given in return.
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 don't think [Parkinson's] is Gothic nastiness. There's nothing on the surface that's horrible about someone with a shaky hand. There's nothing horrible about someone in their life saying, God, I'm really tired of this shaky hand thing and me saying, Me, too. That's our reality. We have no control over it.
Michael J. Fox
Teenagers blithely skip off to uncertain futures, while their parents sit weeping curbside in the Volvo, because the adolescent brain isn't yet formed enough to recognize and evaluate risk.
Michael J. Fox
They did something once that slurred my speech, and I thought, Oh, man, you're messing with my brain. It's freaking me out.
Michael J. Fox
If you allow for the possibilities of something better, you move toward it instinctively.
Michael J. Fox
Do the right thing, and then do the next right thing, and that will lead you to the next right thing after that.
Michael J. Fox
