More quotes by Michael Moore
I'm caught up probably just as much in the consumer culture as the next person.
Michael Moore
Everybody gets sick everybody has had a problem with insurance or the prescription drugs they're supposed to be taking or an elderly parent who needs care.
Michael Moore
Army Specialist Bradley Manning deserves a medal, not prison.
Michael Moore
The health insurance industry does not like to pay out claims, because they don't make money. The only way they can make a profit is if they don't pay for your operation. If they pay for your operation and your doctor's appointment and your pharmaceuticals, they don't make any money.
Michael Moore
Nobody had a credit card when I was a kid. No one had credit card debt. But these big companies and banks wanted to know how to get more money out of people - get them charging things.
Michael Moore
When you come from the working class and you do well enough whereby you can provide a little bit better for your family, get a decent roof over their head and send them to a good school, that's considered a good thing.
Michael Moore
If you believe in equality, if you believe in standing up for the rights of all, especially for people most affected by bigotry and discrimination, then you have no choice but to be present and accounted for when it comes to standing up for gays and lesbians in our society.
Michael Moore
All I ask is that you not be naive about how the government works when it decides to go after its prey.
Michael Moore
I've made a lot of enemies in all the right places, and there aren't enough hours in the day to respond to either the well-financed corporate hacks or the lowly stalkers who seek to libel me or make a buck off the fact that I'm a well-known person.
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
You can't regulate child labor. You can't regulate slavery. Some things are just wrong.
Michael Moore
Here's what I don't think works: An economic system that was founded in the 16th century and another that was founded in the 19th century. I'm tired of this discussion of capitalism and socialism we live in the 21st century, we need an economic system that has democracy as its underpinnings and an ethical code.
Michael Moore
I want us all to face our fears and stop behaving like our goal in life is to merely survive. Surviving is for wimps and game show contestants stranded in the jungle or on a desert island. You are not stranded. You own the store....You deserve better.
Michael Moore
I think as a filmmaker my first contribution would just be to make a good movie that people would love to see and leave the theatre charged, with a sense of excitement.
Michael Moore
And realising that humour is the most powerful way to make a political statement and say the things that you want to say. And it's not used enough, at least not in the U.S.
Michael Moore
My uncle killed by sniper in WW2. We were taught snipers were cowards. Will shoot u in the back. Snipers aren't heroes. And invaders r worse.
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
As a quiet salute to Beavis and Butthead, I held up my index finger and thumb in an L-the international sign for loser.
Michael Moore
Republicans are relentless and they're smart, too - they're not all dumb - and on Election Day, they'll be up at five in the morning.
Michael Moore
You share things with people and I think information, and art, and ideas should be shared.
Michael Moore
