More quotes by Michael Moore
I like BuzzFeed, and I understand the pressure that online reporters are under. But I think everyone agrees that, despite all the awesome kitten gifs, they're still obligated to be skeptical of government officials and ask the right questions.
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
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
Greed has been with human beings forever. We have a number of things in our species that you would call 'the dark side,' and greed is one of them. If you don't put certain structures in place or restrictions on those parts of our being that come from that dark place, then it gets out of control.
Michael Moore
You can't regulate child labor. You can't regulate slavery. Some things are just wrong.
Michael Moore
I'm actually a fairly conservative person. I live a very conservative lifestyle.
Michael Moore
I was kind of a strange child. My parents knew early on that something must have been wrong with me. I crawled backwards until I was two, but had Kennedy's inaugural address memorized by the time I was six.
Michael Moore
Democracy is not a spectator sport, it's a participatory event. If we don't participate in it, it ceases to be a democracy.
Michael Moore
There's nothing inherently or patently wrong with anybody who does well, works hard, earns a living, betters themselves. I'm not against any of these things. It's about how you make that money, and then what you do with it.
Michael Moore
My dad was an assembly line worker at AC Spark Plug, which was a division of General Motors, and his job was to build and then inspect the little spark plugs as they came off the line.
Michael Moore
I'm a highly flawed individual, as we all are, and because I was raised by Jesuits, I'm constantly, 'What is it about me and what I can do to be better?'
Michael Moore
I've always felt so grateful that I dropped out of school, that I never had to do a thesis. I wouldn't know how to organise and structure myself to film so that B follows A and C follows B.
Michael Moore
You think history is going to remember the United States as a great democracy? No, they're going to think of us as a nation that became addicted to war. They'll call us warlords.
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
Wall Street, the banks, and corporate America, has been able to call the shots here. They control our members of Congress and they get what they want.
Michael Moore
This life is a gift, and to reject that gift or abuse that gift is not human and not worthy of us.
Michael Moore
I take much of the attacks and the criticism toward me as being very class-based, but as Americans we don't like to acknowledge that reality.
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 get called 'controversial' all the time.
Michael Moore
The majority of Americans, the ones who never elected George W. Bush, are not fooled by his weapons of mass distraction.
