More quotes by Werner Herzog
In Germany, you would be hanged if you cracked a joke about Hitler and you would be killed by the state if you were insane in a project of euthanasia.
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
Coincidences always happen if you keep your mind open, while storyboards remain the instruments of cowards who do not trust in their own imagination and who are slaves of a matrix If you get used to planning your shots based solely on aesthetics, you are never that far from kitsch.
Werner Herzog
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
I'm not a one-trick horse.
Werner Herzog
The trees are in misery, and the birds are in misery. I don’t think they sing. They just screech in pain. …Taking a close look at what’s around us, there is some sort of harmony: it’s the harmony of overwhelming and collective murder.
Werner Herzog
I cannot work fast enough. I cannot cope fast enough, really. And just releasing a film is hard.
Werner Herzog
There's this kind of strange mythology about me in the media because I've done unusual things.
Werner Herzog
What I do not like, the kind of high-resolution cameras, 4K, 6K, for shooting dialogue, for having faces and close-ups of actors, and you see every single pore in the skin.
Werner Herzog
I don't see poetry as something that has to do with too much emotion anyway. It has to do with language.
Werner Herzog
You can't have a helicopter fly over boiling lava. It would've exploded from the heat, and is just way too dangerous. The pilot of a helicopter would've flatly refused anyway.
Werner Herzog
Maybe I should stay a good soldier of cinema.
Werner Herzog
I have always postulated that we have to find a new way to deal with reality. It's not so much facts that interest me, but a deeper truth in them - an ecstasy of truth, an ecstatic truth that illuminates us. That's what I've been after.
Werner Herzog
It's very strange, for example, in North Korea where the volcano at the Chinese border is some sort of the mythical birthplace of the Korean people.
Werner Herzog
The universe couldn't care less about us. I say this very clearly in the film [ Into the Inferno]: our planet is indifferent to scurrying roaches, retarded reptiles and vapid humans alike.
Werner Herzog
We are surrounded by worn-out, banal, useless and exhausted images, limping and dragging themselves behind the rest of our cultural evolution.
Werner Herzog
The danger is to stupidly believe that depicting facts gives us much insight. If facts were the only thing that counted, the telephone directory would be the book of books.
Werner Herzog
Only the poets can hold the country together, and I wanted to hold Germany together.
Werner Herzog
We have to articulate ourselves. Otherwise we would be cows in the field.
Werner Herzog
Everything you see in North Korea, it's all propaganda, but it's all connected to the volcano.
