Michael Moore
Documentaries are a form of journalism.
Michael Moore
They may rail at this life - from the hour I began it, I've found it a life full of kindness and bliss And until they can show me some happier planet. More social and bright, I'll content me with this.
Michael Moore
Healthcare should be between the doctor and the patient. And if the doctor says something needs to be done, the government should guarantee it gets paid for.
Michael Moore
Our laws demand that a corporation have a fiduciary responsibility with shareholders to maximize profits. They are legally required to make as much money as possible, any way possible within 'the law.'
Michael Moore
I realized that this was the big secret of democracy -- that change can occur by starting off with just a few people doing something.
Michael Moore
