My argument has always been that this is not an anti-Bush film, it's a pro-democracy film. And if Bush comes out on the wrong side of democracy, that's his problem.

Fahrenheit 9/11 took public domain information that should have been on the news every night and put it in a film that a lot of people went to see. But still Bush has never had to answer those charges.

I take more jobs when I need more money, if I'm investing in films. I take fewer when I don't. Or if something really good comes along, I usually find a way to do a good job on it in the time that I've got.

I probably wouldn't have done as many as I did in one year, which I did when I was trying to raise money.

People who relieve others of their money with guns are called robbers. It does not alter the immorality of the act when the income transfer is carried out by government.

If you have small-government, traditional values, you may be considered by your own leadership to be an enemy of the state.

I am especially proud of taking on issues most central to the health of our American democracy.

Being the chief minister of a regional government is just a pastime compared with the hellish job of being prime minister of two different communities brought together.
