Film is not the art of scholars, but of illiterates.

I make films because I have not learned anything else and I know I can do it to a certain degree. And it is my duty because this might be the inner chronicle of what we are. We have to articulate ourselves, otherwise we would be cows in the field.

I looked, for example, to certain types of literature to which I would like to refer, like The Peregrine by J. A. Baker, and I mention a book, read this, read it, read it if you are serious of being in any type of art or into filmmaking, or films that I should quote as examples.

You should look straight at a film that's the only way to see one. Film is not the art of scholars but of illiterates.
Werner Herzog
Image
It happens sometimes that the material itself carries things you have not fully planned. The footage has its own right, its own life, its own vibrancy and energy in it.
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?

I prefer the material woman.

Someone like Jean-Luc Godard is for me intellectual counterfeit money when compared to a good kung fu film.

If you don't read, you will never be a filmmaker.
Werner Herzog
Image
Money doesn't make films. You just do it and take the initiative.
Werner Herzog
Image
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
Image
I am someone who takes everything very literally. I simply do not understand irony, a defect I have had ever since I was able to think independently.

The world reveals itself to those who travel on foot.
