More quotes by Michael Moore
A majority of this country opposes this war, a majority of this country never voted for this administration.
Michael Moore
Many criminals believe what they say is true they could pass a lie detector test.
Michael Moore
People like me who grew up in a working-class town, who don't have a college education, you don't usually hear from us.
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
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
A newspaper is a public trust, and we will suffer as a society without them. It is not the Internet that has killed them. It is their own greed, it is their own stupidity, and it is capitalism that has taken our daily newspapers from us.
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
Back in the late '90s, I put together a humorous newsmagazine program called 'The Awful Truth' for Bravo. We helped one guy get an organ transplant whose insurance company had refused to pay. I thought, if we could save a guy's life in a 10-minute segment on cable, what could we do if we devoted a whole movie to a whole bunch of people?
Michael Moore
I'd feel bad if I had you come into a theater and you leave feeling ripped off.
Michael Moore
Under Reagan came the idea of putting your pension plan in the stock market, which wasn't a guaranteed pension.
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
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
The highest courage is to dare to be yourself in the face of adversity. Choosing right over wrong, ethic over convenience, and truth over popularity ... these are choices that measure your life. Travel the path of integrity without looking back, for there is never a wrong time to do the right thing.
Michael Moore
I get called 'controversial' all the time.
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
I think if people who are attacking me or against me, if they would just watch one of my films, they would - they may not agree with me politically on all the things I'm saying. But they will know at the end of the film that I love this country and that I have a heart. And they'll have a good laugh throughout the film.
Michael Moore
Bush's presidency is revisionism-proof. We're going to be recovering from it for the rest of our lives.
Michael Moore
I may be preaching to the choir, but the choir needs a good song.
Michael Moore
It turns out Cuba has this incredible healthcare system for a very poor country.
Michael Moore
Most Americans, in their heart, are liberal and progressive. It's just a small minority of people who hate, they hate, they exist in the politics of hate, they don't believe two consenting adults should have the right to be in love and share their lives together and be legally protected by the state.
Michael Moore
