More quotes by Michael Moore
How can there be inaccuracy in comedy?
Michael Moore
I come from the state of Michigan. We were the first English-speaking government in the world to outlaw the death penalty, back in the 1840s. We have never had, as a state, the death penalty in Michigan. I was raised with that, and even Republicans in Michigan, nobody would even think of putting a measure on the ballot to have the death penalty.
Michael Moore
I like America to some extent.
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
Democracy is not a spectator sport, it's a participatory event. If we don't participate in it, it ceases to be a democracy.
Michael Moore
I think that capitalism in general is responsible, not for the worldwide recession, but for a lot of suffering, both in the United States and around the world.
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
I assume everything I'm saying in an email or saying on the telephone is being looked at.
Michael Moore
Openness, transparency - these are among the few weapons the citizenry has to protect itself from the powerful and the corrupt... and that is the best thing that WikiLeaks has done.
Michael Moore
I personally hold Blair more responsible for this war than I do George Bush. The reason is, Blair knows better, Blair is not an idiot. What is he doing hanging around this guy?
Michael Moore
I realized that this was the big secret of democracy -- that change can occur by starting off with just a few people doing something.
Michael Moore
Under Reagan came the idea of putting your pension plan in the stock market, which wasn't a guaranteed pension.
Michael Moore
White people scare the crap out of me.
Michael Moore
I'm not a pundit. I'm not an analyst. I don't want to participate in the existing debate that's going on about whether or not you should be able to have as many guns as you want to have or that guns are even the problem.
Michael Moore
Transporting Americans is and should be one of the most important functions our government must address.
Michael Moore
I believe that when you provide information to people, they become less fearful and they will engage more in their democracy if they are empowered with information.
Michael Moore
As a quiet salute to Beavis and Butthead, I held up my index finger and thumb in an L-the international sign for loser.
Michael Moore
I'm a highly flawed individual, as we all are, and because I was raised by Jesuits, I'm constantly, 'What is it about me and what I can do to be better?'
Michael Moore
I have been aspiring to write some sort of literature for a long time.

15 of the 19 [September 11th] hijackers were from Saudi Arabia.
