More quotes by Werner Herzog
I do whatever pushes me hardest. It's coming at me and I try to... it's like uninvited guest and I have to wrestle them out the door or through the window - get them out and get over with them quickly.
Werner Herzog
But the question that everyone wanted answered was whether I would have the nerve and the strength to start the whole process from scratch. I said yes otherwise I would be someone who had no dream left, and without dreams I would not want to live.
Werner Herzog
Facts sometimes have a strange and bizarre power that makes their inherent truth seem unbelievable.
Werner Herzog
The paintings are not just on flat walls - you have these enormous niches, bulges and protrusions, as well as stalactites and stalagmites. The effect of the three-dimensionality is phenomenal. It's a real drama which the artists of the time understood, and they used it for the drama of their paintings.
Werner Herzog
There's a completely new culture out there. I'm not a participant of texting and driving - or texting at all - but I see there's something going on in civilization which is coming with great vehemence at us.
Werner Herzog
The power of a volcano when it erupts is so evident, so visible, so palpable.
Werner Herzog
People think we had a love-hate relationship. Well, I did not love him, nor did I hate him. We had mutual respect for each other, even as we both planned each other's murder.
Werner Herzog
If you’re purely after facts, please buy yourself the phone directory of Manhattan. It has four million times correct facts. But it doesn’t illuminate.
Werner Herzog
The danger is to stupidly believe that depicting facts gives us much insight. If facts were the only thing that counted, the telephone directory would be the book of books.
Werner Herzog
I think I would be a good villain in a James Bond movie.
Werner Herzog
I don't see poetry as something that has to do with too much emotion anyway. It has to do with language.
Werner Herzog
I'm not a one-trick horse.
Werner Herzog
I think a state should not be in the capacity of killing anyone with the exception of warfare.
Werner Herzog
There are deeper strata of truth in cinema, and there is such a thing as poetic, ecstatic truth. It is mysterious and elusive, and can be reached only through fabrication and imagination and stylization.
Werner Herzog
I am so used to plunging into the unknown that any other surroundings and form of existence strike me as exotic and unsuitable for human beings.
Werner Herzog
There is never an excuse not to finish a film.
Werner Herzog
However, there are a couple of volcanoes very close nearby, like Vesuvius in Italy right next to Naples.
Werner Herzog
The wonderful thing is that Clive [Oppenheimer ] insisted on training his camera - his private camera - on me at one point. We were discussing things such as how to avoid certain dangers, while reflecting on a volcano that had threatened to explode 40 years ago.
Werner Herzog
In private I'm not. You will have to ask my wife. She maintains I'm a fluffy husband.
Werner Herzog
A fairly young, intelligent-looking man with long hair asked me whether filming or being filmed could do harm, whether it could destroy a person. In my heart the answer was yes, but I said no.
