The universe is not harmonious: you know that by looking outside.
Werner Herzog

You better make yourself acquainted to what the requirements are, what the value of money is all about and how you create a long-term survival, and in many cases it has to do with how you handle finances.
Werner Herzog
Image
I don't want to travel.
Werner Herzog
Image
I'm a very circumspect and prudent person, and I eliminate danger as far as it can be done.
Werner Herzog

Werner Herzog
Image
I am a product of my failures.
Werner Herzog
Image

Film is not the art of scholars, but of illiterates.
Werner Herzog
Image
I think the worst that can happen in filmmaking is if you're working with a storyboard. That kills all intuition, all fantasy, all creativity.
Werner Herzog
Image
When I see a face, I see a face in general and I see you are curious, I see the curiosity but I don't not look after a dermatological report of your cheeks, and that's what you see when you're too high-resolution. And now desperately in post-production, in color grading, they are trying to wipe out the precision of the dermatological report.
Werner Herzog
Image
The elections have a different platform, the town hall is the platform for it. But the other question behind all this is should I run for president?
Werner Herzog
Image
Of course the entire planet Earth consists of magma under us, and only the very inner-core is different.
Werner Herzog
Image
I'm very, very curious about how people live under the volcano, how they handle the permanence of danger.
Werner Herzog

I have not seen a film as powerful, surreal, and frightening in at least a decade unprecedented in the history of cinema.
