I hate to say it, but killing is our way. We began America with genocide, then built it with slaves. The shootings will continue. It's who we are.

If there ever is a struggle, making a good movie will always supersede the need to be noble.

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 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.

The American media wants to pump you full of fear.
Michael Moore

And realising that humour is the most powerful way to make a political statement and say the things that you want to say. And it's not used enough, at least not in the U.S.
Michael Moore

Halliburton is not a 'company' doing business in Iraq. It is a war profiteer, bilking millions from the pockets of average Americans. In past wars they would have been arrested – or worse.
Michael Moore

You can't regulate child labor. You can't regulate slavery. Some things are just wrong.

How can there be inaccuracy in comedy?

What I'm asking for is a new economic order. I don't know how to construct that I'm not an economist.

My mum taught me how to read before I went to kindergarden, I always thought that being able to read provided lightness, help to dispel darkness, ignorance and stupidity.
