More quotes by Michael Moore
If the guy out in the woods with the Michigan Militia is a real estate negotiator, instead of some crackpot, and has a normal life, that's unnerving. You don't want to think it's as normal as the guy next door, hedging his lawn. It's easier to demonize or separate them off from 'us.'

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
We're never gonna get rid of crazy people. They've been around for thousands of years - they'll continue to be around they'll continue to do horrible things.
Michael Moore
I assume everything I'm saying in an email or saying on the telephone is being looked at.
Michael Moore
When I make a film, I'm not doing it purely for political reasons. If I just wanted to do that, I'd run for office.
Michael Moore
We should all spend some time of our life doing service to our country. To me, I would give up a couple of years.
Michael Moore
You survive by having your fear compass calibrated correctly. Our compass is off now because we're being told to be afraid of everything. The things that we're frightened of, or told to be frightened of, are not necessarily the things that we need to fear.

People of my age who went to college, go into college, you know what it cost back then? Nothing or next to nothing. At the most, you had to work at Dairy Queen during the summer and that would pay for your college education.
