More quotes by Michael Douglas
Wherever arms flow, violence follows. Bullets replace ballots as the solution to political disputes.
Michael Douglas
Cancer did not bring me to my knees, it brought me to my feet.
Michael Douglas
There was a lot of tabloid journalism about my supposed sex addiction. Bullshit. It's all bullshit. I mean, come on, I never pretended to be a saint. But give me a break.
Michael Douglas
Greed, for lack of a better word, is good.
Michael Douglas
I'm questioning it. We're trying to get a lot of money for health and education and I'm wondering... You look at these gangs, and I look back at Prohibition. When we didn't allow alcohol, what did we have? We had gangs. We had big gangs. It's something that needs to be discussed a little more. It's an economic issue and a violence issue.
Michael Douglas
Every empire eventually falls.

Michael Douglas
When I look at myself as a younger actor, I see what a tight ass I was. I had a pretty big shadow because of my father and the comparisons. I was self-conscious about that. Now I realize there was nothing to be worried about.
Michael Douglas
What's worth doing is worth doing for money.
Michael Douglas
I thought I could never be the actor Dad was, so I avoided it for a while.
Michael Douglas
Greed, for lack of a better word, is good. Greed is right. Greed works. Greed clarifies and cuts through to the essence of the evolutionary spirit.
Michael Douglas
Basketball is great no one in Europe seems to believe just how close the spectators can sit to the players.
Michael Douglas
You have to make entertaining movies. But like a good meal, it's nice to have a little food for thought after you walk out of the theater rather than just wiling away a couple of hours.
Michael Douglas
For an actor, its great fun to play one of these hungry white sharks. Audiences love to hate them.
Michael Douglas
If we confront anti-Semitism ... if we combat it individually and as a society, and use whatever platform we have to denounce it, we can stop the spread of this madness.
Michael Douglas
I'm impressed with the people from Chicago. Hollywood is hype, New York is talk, Chicago is work.
Michael Douglas
Someone reminded me I once said, 'Greed is good.' Now it seems it's legal.
Michael Douglas
