As far as what I do love, I love birds; I love lavender. (Michael Moore)
Healthcare should be between the doctor and the patient. And if the doctor says something needs to be done, the government should guarantee it gets paid for. View quote
Michael Moore
You survive by having your fear compass calibrated correctly. Our compass is off now because we're being told to be afraid of everything. The things that we're frightened of, or told to be frightened of, are not necessarily the things that we need to fear. View quote
Michael Moore
What the media are telling you to be afraid of are the wrong things... Fear is a necessary ingredient of our survival instincts. View quote
Michael Moore

Michael Moore
You do not have the right to take another human's life, unless it's in strict self-defense. View quote
Michael Moore
I'm a religious fanatic? Yes, I am, actually. View quote
Michael Moore
Capitalism is against the things that we say we believe in - democracy, freedom of choice, fairness. It's not about any of those things now. It's about protecting the wealthy and legalizing greed. View quote
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. View quote
Michael Moore
I've read stories of slave owners who were very generous. They didn't keep them in shackles, they didn't whip the slaves, they built schools and churches for them, free housing, free food, free everything. It's wrong. No matter how nice you make it look, it's wrong. View quote
Michael Moore
First of all, the American people are inundated with advertisement after advertisement of you buy, buy, buy. You've got to have the latest thing. The iPad 1 isn't any good anymore, you've got to have the iPad 2. The iPhone 4, now you've got to have iPhone 4S. Now you've got to have the 5b, now you've got to have the 6c. (Michael Moore)
Contrary to what those in power would like you to believe so that you'll give up your pension, cut your wages, and settle for the life your great-grandparents had, America is not broke. Not by a long shot. The country is awash in wealth and cash. View quote
Michael Moore
I'm not a proselytizer. I was raised Catholic. I am a Catholic. View quote
Michael Moore
The money to fund great things and innovations and programs is gone in our lifetime; it's all gone to debt. So we won't be able to solve global warming or have the transportation that we needed for the 21st century. We should be supporting people with great ideas, but it's gone, and now it's gotta be paid back with interest to banks in China. View quote
Michael Moore
I made 'Bowling for Columbine' in the hope the school shootings would stop and that we would address the issue of how easy it is to get a gun in the United States, and tragically, those school shootings continue. View quote
Michael Moore
Under Reagan came the idea of putting your pension plan in the stock market, which wasn't a guaranteed pension. View quote
Michael Moore
I was kind of a strange child. My parents knew early on that something must have been wrong with me. I crawled backwards until I was two, but had Kennedy's inaugural address memorized by the time I was six. View quote
Michael Moore
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. View quote
Michael Moore
Greed has been with human beings forever. We have a number of things in our species that you would call 'the dark side,' and greed is one of them. If you don't put certain structures in place or restrictions on those parts of our being that come from that dark place, then it gets out of control. View quote
Michael Moore
I was a good little boy and a good student. I've never been arrested. View quote
Michael Moore
It's not surprising to me that in a country born of racial genocide, the issue of race is still an open wound on the American soul. We haven't dealt with it. (Michael Moore)
You can't regulate child labor. You can't regulate slavery. Some things are just wrong. View quote
Michael Moore
There's no violence coming from the Occupy protesters. View quote
Michael Moore
