More quotes by Michael Moore
Under Reagan came the idea of putting your pension plan in the stock market, which wasn't a guaranteed pension.
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
The real problem with the IRS is that they let General Electric not pay any taxes -- and 50 other corporations -- that's the real scandal.
Michael Moore
I get called 'controversial' all the time.
Michael Moore
I certainly believe that I have no right to tell another couple whether they can or cannot be married.
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
What I'm asking for is a new economic order. I don't know how to construct that I'm not an economist.
Michael Moore
The worst way to defend our freedom is to let our leaders start taking away our freedoms! It is exactly during times like these [a national crisis] that we need more freedom of speech, a strong and critical press, and a citizenry that is not afraid to stand up and say that the emperor has no clothes.
Michael Moore
Fahrenheit 9/11: The temperature where freedom burns!
Michael Moore
I had a newspaper in Flint, Michigan called the 'Flint Voice,' and so it was a, you know, underground, alternative newspaper that I edited and put out for about ten years.
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
I think that there's something in the American psyche, it's almost this kind of right or privilege, this sense of entitlement, to resolve our conflicts with violence. There's an arrogance to that concept if you think about it. To actually have to sit down and talk, to listen, to compromise, that's hard work.
Michael Moore
Maybe it's a sick fantasy of mine, but I am really looking forward to a debate between a general and a deserter. Plus, I really want to hear President Bush have to say, Yes, General, No, General.
Michael Moore
The motivation for war is simple. The U.S. government started the war with Iraq in order to make it easy for U.S. corporations to do business in other countries. They intend to use cheap labor in those countries, which will make Americans rich.
Michael Moore
Post-war filmmakers gave us the documentary, Rob Reiner gave us the mockumentary and Moore initiated a third genre, the crockumentary.
Michael Moore
You can't regulate child labor. You can't regulate slavery. Some things are just wrong.
Michael Moore
I think I'm in the majority of Americans. I believe that I am in the mainstream of middle America.
Michael Moore
I like America to some extent.
Michael Moore
Should such an ignorant people lead the world? How did it come to this in the first place? 82 percent of us don't even have a passport! Just a handful can speak a language other than English.
Michael Moore
I don't want to do anything that violates my own personal code of ethics and morals.
Michael Moore
