More quotes by 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've never supported this concept of going after Napster. I think the rock bands who fought this were wrong.
Michael Moore
This is the crux of the problem: because the Republicans and the right wing have been successful in almost eliminating unions, everyone else has suffered as a result.
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
We like nonfiction, and we live in fictitious times.
Michael Moore
I was taught from a very early age that it was probably the most American thing you can do is to question what's going on and to try to fix things that you see that aren't right. I believed that as a young person, and I believe that today.
Michael Moore
I get called 'controversial' all the time.
Michael Moore
If you're in a diabetic or prediabetic state, it's good to have medication to go on for a period of time. But simply by making the changes - get your sleep, 35 grams of fiber and a half-hour walk - your cholesterol will come down, your sugar will come down, and your blood pressure will come down. Only the minority of people can't control it.
Michael Moore
When you come from the working class and you do well enough whereby you can provide a little bit better for your family, get a decent roof over their head and send them to a good school, that's considered a good thing.
Michael Moore
The purpose of art actually is, in many cases, to make you feel quite uncomfortable. Or at least to go to that place that's already of discomfort inside of you and tap into that.
Michael Moore
This book, 'Stupid White Men,' has sold now over four million copies worldwide. Probably about half of that may be in the U.S. and Canada, and the rest, overseas.
Michael Moore
I take much of the attacks and the criticism toward me as being very class-based, but as Americans we don't like to acknowledge that reality.
Michael Moore
The entire business world has figured out how to make huge buckets of money without hiring us to work for them.
Michael Moore
All art is about appealing to emotion.
Michael Moore
They may rail at this life - from the hour I began it, I've found it a life full of kindness and bliss And until they can show me some happier planet. More social and bright, I'll content me with this.
Michael Moore
Here's what I don't think works: An economic system that was founded in the 16th century and another that was founded in the 19th century. I'm tired of this discussion of capitalism and socialism we live in the 21st century, we need an economic system that has democracy as its underpinnings and an ethical code.
Michael Moore
In spite of Bush's win, the majority of Americans still think the country is headed in the wrong direction (56%), think the war wasn't worth fighting (51%), and don't approve of the job George W. Bush is doing (52%).
Michael Moore
I certainly believe that I have no right to tell another couple whether they can or cannot be married.
Michael Moore
A lot of political people, especially people on the left, have forgotten the importance of humor as an incredible weapon, and a vehicle through which to affect change.
Michael Moore
I'll tell you who doesn't have any personal responsibility. Companies like General Electric and others who pay absolutely no income tax.
Michael Moore
