More quotes by Werner Herzog
I have not seen a film as powerful, surreal, and frightening in at least a decade unprecedented in the history of cinema.
Werner Herzog
I think I would be a good villain in a James Bond movie.
Werner Herzog
One of the most original and poetic works of cinema made anywhere in the seventies.
Werner Herzog
I'm a very professional man. I'm not out for the experience of adventure.
Werner Herzog
Someone like Jean-Luc Godard is for me intellectual counterfeit money when compared to a good kung fu film.
Werner Herzog
Everything you see in North Korea, it's all propaganda, but it's all connected to the volcano.
Werner Herzog
In my films, I hope there are a few moments where you feel almost illuminated, like in a state of ecstasy, stepping out of yourself, beyond yourself and perceiving something which is only, in the case of cinema, possible in collective dreams.
Werner Herzog
Facts do not convey truth. That's a mistake. Facts create norms, but truth creates illumination.
Werner Herzog
In the face of the obscene, explicit malice of the jungle, which lacks only dinosaurs as punctuation, I feel like a half-finished, poorly expressed sentence in a cheap novel.
Werner Herzog
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
With actors, normally I don't like to have any conversation about background and about motivations and all this.
Werner Herzog
I like and I love everything that has to do with cinema, writing, directing, editing, creating music, and even acting.
Werner Herzog
I do other sorts of things. I act in other people's movies. I direct operas. I write books.
Werner Herzog
Read, read, read, read, read, read, read, read, read, read, read, read, read...if you don't read, you will never be a filmmaker.
Werner Herzog
May I propose a Herzog dictum? Those who read own the world, and those who watch television lose it.
Werner Herzog
When I say tourism is sin and traveling on foot is virtue, it's condensed into a dictum. It's much more complex than that, but let's face it, for me, my experience, the world reveals itself to those that travel on foot. You understand the world in a much deeper level. And it does good to anyone who makes film.
Werner Herzog
Public life is constantly aware of the volcano.
Werner Herzog
I love nature but against my better judgment.
Werner Herzog
Netflix knew I was going to North Korea and Ethiopia and Iceland. They saw the film and liked it and that was that.
Werner Herzog
If an actor knows how to milk a cow, I always know it will not be difficult to be in business with him.
Werner Herzog
