More quotes by Michael J. Fox

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
Now I feel and I say all the time that vanity is, like, long gone. I'm really free of worrying about what I look like, because it's out of my shaky hands. I don't control it. So why would I waste one second of my life worrying about it?
Michael J. Fox
Acceptance is the key to everything.
Michael J. Fox
When prescribing one of the drugs I take, my doctor warned me of a common side effect: exaggerated, intensely vivid dreams. To be honest, I've never really noticed the difference. I've always dreamt big.
Michael J. Fox
Family is not an important thing. It's everything.
Michael J. Fox
I see possibilities in everything. For everything that's taken away, something of greater value has been given.

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.
