Michael J. Fox Quotes : pic 001167889

Michael J. Fox Quotes : pic 001168971

Michael J. Fox Quotes : pic 001236585

Michael J. Fox Quotes : pic 001237952
One of the great things about Parkinson's, in a superficial way, is it relieved me of vanity. I don't worry about what I look like, because it's literally out of my hands. But on a deeper level, it gives you a real humility, because you have to deal every day with the fact that you compromise. -- Michael J. Fox

Michael J. Fox Quotes : pic 001277129
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
Michael J. Fox Quotes : pic 001277911
