L.A. - talk about a cruel city: Patients are forcibly removed from hospitals.
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.

We reward people for making money off money, and moving money around and dividing up mortgages a thousand times over, selling it to China... and it becomes this shell game.
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
The majority of Americans, the ones who never elected George W. Bush, are not fooled by his weapons of mass distraction.
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
I don't support the troops, America, and neither do you.
Michael Moore
Sometimes it's important to vote - you know, to make a statement, to make a point certainly, many of us who were involved in the Nader campaign in 2000 felt that way.
Michael Moore
There is nowhere in the four Gospels where Jesus uses the word 'homosexual.'

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.
