More quotes by Michael Moore
I don't believe that the Bush Administration had something to do with September 11th. I do believe that there were a lot of warning signals, but I don't think they were ignored on purpose - Bush just wanted to go to the ranch for a month.
Michael Moore
There's nothing pure about capitalism.
Michael Moore
Hope for the best is what we do, right from the moment we're born.
Michael Moore
In some states, you can vote a straight party ticket, but you can't vote for individual candidates.
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
There's no such thing as enough.
Michael Moore
I have enormous respect for anyone who would offer to sacrifice their life to defend my right to live. Is there any greater gift one can give another?
Michael Moore
I want us all to face our fears and stop behaving like our goal in life is to merely survive.
Michael Moore
We as Americans believe it’s OK to kill people. We believe it’s OK to invade a country that had nothing to do with 9/11. We think it’s OK to invade a country where we think Osama Bin Laden is and he’s in the other country. So we just go in and we just kill. And we have the death penalty, we sanction it.
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
But I'm not a member of the Democratic Party. If you know anything about me, anybody who's followed me, I'm the anti-Democrat. I have railed against the Democrats for a long time.
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
When I make a film, I'm not doing it purely for political reasons. If I just wanted to do that, I'd run for office.
Michael Moore
I'm a citizen in a democracy. To call me an activist would be redundant. It's not a spectator sport. If we all become non-participants, it no longer works.
Michael Moore
One thing I learned as a journalist is that there is at least one disgruntled person in every workplace in America - and at least double that number with a conscience. Hard as they try, they simply can't turn their heads away from an injustice when they see one taking place.
Michael Moore
A government run by billionaires for billionaires is an affront to freedom and morality and humanity.
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
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
L.A. - talk about a cruel city: Patients are forcibly removed from hospitals.
Michael Moore
I don't 'support the troops' or any of those other hollow and hypocritical platitudes uttered by Republicans and frightened Democrats. Here's what I do support: I support them coming home. I support them being treated well.
Michael Moore
