More quotes by Al Franken
If 98 out of 100 doctors tell me I've got a problem, I should take their advice. And if those two other doctors get paid by Big Snack Food, like certain climate deniers get paid by Big Coal, I shouldn't take their advice.

I had a great time working on the movies, both the major movies I've done. I've had a great time. I like the people in Hollywood a lot.

Terrorism, to me, is the use of terror for political purpose, and terror is indiscriminate murder of civilians to make a political point.
Al Franken
I think Hell exists on Earth. It's a psychological state, or it can be a physical state. People who have severe mental illness are in Hell. People who have lost a loved one are in Hell. I think there are all kinds of different hells. It's not a place you go to after you die.

We need to be pro-science we have to go back to science.
Al Franken
Anybody who deliberately propagandizes with lies should be held up to scorn and ridicule.

Net neutrality isn't a government takeover of the Internet, as many of my Republican colleagues have alleged.
Al Franken
There are as many forms of advice as there are colors of the rainbow. Remember that good advice can come from bad people and bad advice from good people. The important thing about advice is that it is simply that. Advice.

I ask the American people not to fall victim to disinformation. There are no death panels. The Affordable Care Act cuts the deficit.
Al Franken
We need an investigation, because we don't know what Donald Trump owes Russia. We don't know how many Russian oligarchs have invested in his business.

I’m good enough, I’m smart enough, and dog-gone it, people like me.
