Michael Moore

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
What I'm asking for is a new economic order. I don't know how to construct that I'm not an economist.
Michael Moore
Post-war filmmakers gave us the documentary, Rob Reiner gave us the mockumentary and Moore initiated a third genre, the crockumentary.
Michael Moore

Michael Moore
Bush's presidency is revisionism-proof. We're going to be recovering from it for the rest of our lives.
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
There should be no private health insurance companies operating for profit.
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
Under Reagan came the idea of putting your pension plan in the stock market, which wasn't a guaranteed pension.
