More quotes by Werner Herzog
My non-fiction films are pretty much fiction, or at least close... It's all movies for me. I never have searched for a subject. They always just come along. They never come by way of decision-making. They just haunt me. I can't get rid of them. I did not invite them.
Werner Herzog

Werner Herzog
I do have a clear vision, and I do see things that are existing in my quote-unquote spirit, but that doesn't necessary make me a very spiritual person.
Werner Herzog
However, there are a couple of volcanoes very close nearby, like Vesuvius in Italy right next to Naples.
Werner Herzog
I despise formal restaurants. I find all of that formality to be very base and vile. I would much rather eat potato chips on the sidewalk.
Werner Herzog
Gaining trust is not difficult for me. I needed to gain the trust of the North Korean supervisors.
Werner Herzog
Similar thing until today, with digital cameras you look after something like that as robust as they can be.
Werner Herzog
