Michael Francis Moore (born April 23, 1954) is an American documentary filmmaker, activist, and author.
The American public believes that health care is a right and not a commodity.
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.
We should all spend some time of our life doing service to our country. To me, I would give up a couple of years.
We have to see that we're a part of each other, and we have to take care of each other. The reason why they have universal health care in Canada and Britain, these other places? Because they believe if one suffers, everybody suffers.
I'm used to my films having little effect on making the world a better place.
All of our political parties are bought and paid for by corporate America, Wall Street, and the wealthy interests. The Republican Party more so, but the Democrats take their share of the loot, too.
The difference between ignorant and educated people is that the latter know more facts. But that has nothing to do with whether they are stupid or intelligent. The difference between stupid and intelligent people-and this is true whether or not they are well-educated-is that intelligent people can handle subtlety. They are not baffled by ambiguous or even contradictory situations-in fact, they expect them and are apt to become suspicious when things seem overly straightforward.
One of the most ironic things about capitalism is that the capitalist will sell you the rope to hang himself with. Actually they will give you the money to make a movie that makes them look bad, if they believe they can make money off it.
The No. 1 cause of bankruptcies is medical bills.
I'm actually a fairly conservative person. I live a very conservative lifestyle.
The left, liberals, believe that if we just have more gun control laws, all the problems are going to go away. Well, I don't think so. I don't think so. I think - yes, it will, it will be reduced. There's no question about that.
Nothing seems crueler--or more ironic--than these upper crusters who never pay a dime for their high-priced shrinks or reflexology sessions to call those who just want that tumor removed from their uterus a bunch of commies. Well, the revolution is at hand and let's hope all those uninsured commies give the rich such a headache that a whole bottle of Advil won't be enough to take the pain way.
If one job doesn't pay all the bills, don't worry. You can get another one and another one and another one.
Capitalism is an evil, and you cannot regulate evil. You have to eliminate it and replace it with something that is good for all people and that something is democracy.
There's a gullible side to the American people. They can be easily misled. Religion is the best device used to mislead them.
I ask all Americans with a conscience to shun anything and everything to do with the murderous state of Georgia.
We reward people for making money off money, and moving money around and dividing up mortgages a thousand times over, selling it to China. . . and it becomes this shell game.
Today just 400 Americans have more wealth than half of all Americans combined.
There is nowhere in the four Gospels where Jesus uses the word 'homosexual. '
Ask anyone on Social Security if their check comes on time every month. Like clockwork. And it comes through the so-called dilapidated U. S. mail. My dad's check literally will come on the same day every month. The government has been quite good and efficient at creating a number of systems.
