Image
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.

Acceptance doesn't mean resignation it means understanding that something is what it is and that there's got to be a way through it.

Lance Armstrong showed up, and I started talking to him I saw all these people with cancer who followed him to Paris for the Tour de France, and I saw the difference he was making in their lives. That put it together for me...having it be not so much about me, but [my being] a vehicle for it.

I believe that the majority of times the scale tilts toward the good. It's this amazing thing that rolls on and if we get in the flow of it, that's God. And if we fight it, if we swim the other way, we're swimming away from the purest expression of this life.

Image
I definitely believe in a higher power.
Michael J. Fox

You suffer the blow, but you capitalize on the opportunity left in its wake.
Michael J. Fox
Image
I don't burden myself too much with others' expectations - or even my own expectations. I think your happiness grows in direct proportion to your acceptance, and in inverse proportion to your expectations. It's just a matter of putting one foot in front of the other - or doing the next right thing, so to speak.

Image
Do the right thing, and then do the next right thing, and that will lead you to the next right thing after that.

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

Curiosity may have killed the cat, but it saved my ass.
Michael J. Fox
Image
I really love being alive. I love my family and my work. I love the opportunity I have to do things. That's what happiness is.

Image
I always felt that I came up short in the education department, but I've come to the conclusion that we all get an education.
Michael J. Fox
Image
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
Image
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.
