More quotes by 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
Part of my job is to read the paper, watch C-Span and show things that haven't been shown or were buried.
Michael Moore
In America, we don't, in daily discourse, use the words 'capitalism' or 'socialism.' They've been kind of nonexistent words, I would say, amongst the general public.
Michael Moore
If there ever is a struggle, making a good movie will always supersede the need to be noble.
Michael Moore
There should be no private health insurance companies operating for profit.
Michael Moore
Healthcare should be between the doctor and the patient. And if the doctor says something needs to be done, the government should guarantee it gets paid for.
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 know he's [George W. Bush] there illegally. You know he was not elected either by the popular vote or by the vote in Florida.
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
We like nonfiction, and we live in fictitious times.
Michael Moore
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
Ask anyone on Social Security if their check comes on time every month. Like clockwork. And it comes through the so-called dilapidated U.S. mail. My dad's check literally will come on the same day every month. The government has been quite good and efficient at creating a number of systems.
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
Filmmakers and artists always thrive during more liberal times.
Michael Moore
You know we are flawed people, so if someone is going to make a movie about me, they don't have to make it up. My real flaws are much funnier.
Michael Moore
Documentaries are a form of journalism.
Michael Moore
There's only one movie theater in the entire city of Detroit. The entire city has one open movie theater, and it is in the - it is in the General Motors headquarters complex.
Michael Moore
Yeah, I think of what I do as a work of journalism. It's more like the op-ed page, though. These are my opinions. My point of view. The opinions are mine and I let you make up your own mind.
Michael Moore
I ask all Americans with a conscience to shun anything and everything to do with the murderous state of Georgia.
Michael Moore
A government run by billionaires for billionaires is an affront to freedom and morality and humanity.
Michael Moore
