I am a product of my failures.

I don't see poetry as something that has to do with too much emotion anyway. It has to do with language.
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?

Ten years ago in Antarctica shooting Encounters at the End of the World, I met a very fine volcanologist from Cambridge University [Clive Oppenheimer] and we kept talking about doing a film and all of a sudden it became serious when he hinted at the possibility to film in North Korea.

It has always been my aim to find that sort of passion and figure out how to transform it into cinema.Timothy Treadwell's footage was almost like a diary, and he had always dreamt of becoming the movie star in his own gigantic production.

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.

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.

Our presence on this planet does not seem to be sustainable. Our technical civilization makes up particularly vulnerable. There is talk all over the scientific community about climate change. Many of them [scientists] agree, the end of human life on earth is assured.

Everything you see in North Korea, it's all propaganda, but it's all connected to the volcano.

I shouldn't make movies anymore. I should go to a lunatic asylum.

Netflix knew I was going to North Korea and Ethiopia and Iceland. They saw the film and liked it and that was that.

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.

Facts do not constitute truth.

Roger Ebert was the last mammoth alive who was holding the flag for real movies and moviemakers.

I couldn't roam wildly and speak secretly with villagers [in North Korea]. No way you could do that. And honestly, I didn't even try. I was realistic of what I could do and yet persuaded them into accepting numerous things that I shouldn't have filmed.
