More quotes by Michael Moore
A lot of political people, especially people on the left, have forgotten the importance of humor as an incredible weapon, and a vehicle through which to affect change.
Michael Moore
Hope for the best is what we do, right from the moment we're born.
Michael Moore
We like nonfiction, and we live in fictitious times.
Michael Moore
I certainly believe that I have no right to tell another couple whether they can or cannot be married.
Michael Moore
This book, 'Stupid White Men,' has sold now over four million copies worldwide. Probably about half of that may be in the U.S. and Canada, and the rest, overseas.
Michael Moore
I've been encouraging documentary filmmakers to use more and more humor, and they're loath to do that because they think if it's a documentary it has to be deadly serious - it has to be like medicine that you're supposed to take. And I think it's what keeps the mass audience from going to documentaries.
Michael Moore
Capitalism would have never let me be a filmmaker, living in Flint, Michigan with a high school education. I was going to have to make that happen myself.
Michael Moore
One thing I've learned about death threats is that they're great, actually. You should actually be grateful for death threats because those who are taking the time to threaten you that way are getting it out of their system. That's really what they rant to do, yell at you, and they want to threaten you.
Michael Moore
Fahrenheit 9/11: The temperature where freedom burns!
Michael Moore
I'm a citizen in a democracy. To call me an activist would be redundant. It's not a spectator sport. If we all become non-participants, it no longer works.
Michael Moore
I went without health insurance until 'Roger & Me,' basically - from about age 20 till about age 35. With 'Roger & Me,' I joined the Directors Guild and the Writers Guild, and since then I've had excellent health care managed by the union.
Michael Moore
I have a rule: I want the pilot flying me up in the air at 30,000 feet to make more than a guy working at Taco Bell.
Michael Moore
In spite of Bush's win, the majority of Americans still think the country is headed in the wrong direction (56%), think the war wasn't worth fighting (51%), and don't approve of the job George W. Bush is doing (52%).
Michael Moore
Bush's presidency is revisionism-proof. We're going to be recovering from it for the rest of our lives.
Michael Moore
Part of my job is to read the paper, watch C-Span and show things that haven't been shown or were buried.
Michael Moore
The purpose of art actually is, in many cases, to make you feel quite uncomfortable. Or at least to go to that place that's already of discomfort inside of you and tap into that.
Michael Moore
No one is entertained by economics.
Michael Moore
The movie theater is never going away. If that was a case why are there still restaurants? People still have kitchens in their home!
Michael Moore
A majority of this country opposes this war, a majority of this country never voted for this administration.
Michael Moore
Middle class jobs prevent crime and violence.
