More quotes by Werner Herzog
North Korea has a very striking mythology there. It is influencing the whole nation.
Werner Herzog
Life in the oceans must be sheer hell. A vast, merciless hell of permanent and immediate danger. So much of a hell that during evolution some species—including man—crawled, fled onto some small continents of solid land, where the Lessons of Darkness continue.
Werner Herzog
I always loved celluloid cameras in the early days that were sturdy and reliable. Even under tropical conditions and downpour of rain, it would still work.
Werner Herzog
You can fight a rumour only with an even wilder rumour.
Werner Herzog
Most of the volcanoes are pretty far away. You have to go to, God knows, Alaska. Or you have to go to the Southern Indies or you have to go to a specific island.
Werner Herzog
It seems odd, but people who see my films normally take them in in a deeper way than you would actually watch a film, let's say The Terminator or whatever.
Werner Herzog
You will learn more by walking from Canada to Guatemala than you will ever learn in film school.
Werner Herzog
If you do not understand how finances are functioning, you are in a very precarious situation, at least concerning long-term survival.
Werner Herzog
Fact creates norms, and truth illumination.
Werner Herzog
It's all movies for me. And besides, when you say documentaries, in my case, in most of these cases, means feature film in disguise.
Werner Herzog
If the part is really good of course I would like to do it.
Werner Herzog
I don't care whether the person is guilty or not guilty. It's not my business to establish guilt or innocence. It's a court of law that does that and a jury does that, but not me.
Werner Herzog
There's this kind of strange mythology about me in the media because I've done unusual things.
Werner Herzog
I think Irish people started to move to the United States - many things that were of consequence. And it was a tiny and mild event compared to what had happened 74,000 years ago.
Werner Herzog
This is the birth of the modern human soul. The artists are like us, not like the Neanderthals, who had no culture - and who incidentally were still roaming the landscape at the time the paintings were made. It is striking that there is a distant cultural echo that seems to reach all the way down to us, over dozens of millennia.
Werner Herzog
The collapse of the stellar universe will occur - like creation - in grandiose splendor.
Werner Herzog
I do not want to have a cell phone. I do not want it for cultural reasons. I do not want to be available all the time. I want to have time to think and to touch somebody, and have a meal across my kitchen table without a cell phone, being constantly on tweets.
Werner Herzog
I work very fast and steadily, and I don't hardly ever notice that I'm working. It feels like just breathing or walking when I do films.
Werner Herzog
I think I would be a good villain in a James Bond movie.
Werner Herzog
I'm a very circumspect and prudent person, and I eliminate danger as far as it can be done.
Werner Herzog
