At the same time, there's something magnificent about volcanoes they created the atmosphere that we need for breathing.
Werner Herzog
Image
Love is a volcano, the crater of which no wise man will approach too nearly, lest ... he should be swallowed up.
Charles Caleb Colton
Image
You behold a range of exhausted volcanoes. Not a flame flickers on a single pallid crest.
Benjamin Disraeli
Image
I hate the moon. I hate tides and earthquakes and volcanoes. I hate a world where things that have absolutely nothing to do with me can destroy my life and the lives of people I love.
Susan Beth Pfeffer
Image
People never believe in volcanoes until the lava actually overtakes them.
George Santayana
Image
Everything you see in North Korea, it's all propaganda, but it's all connected to the volcano.
Werner Herzog
Image
It would be idle to say that we were not, from time to time, aware that a volcano slumbered fitfully beneath us. There were dark sides to the Slavery Question, for master, as for slave.

I think my favorite movie is Joe Versus the Volcano - or maybe Multiple Maniacs by John Waters.
Justin Kirk

A map of the moon... should be in every geological lecture room for no where can we have a more complete or more magnificent illustration of volcanic operations. Our sublimest volcanoes would rank among the smaller lunar eminences and our Etnas are but spitting furnaces.
James Dwight Dana

There are more active volcanoes beneath the sea than on land by two orders of magnitude.
Robert Ballard

Disasters such as earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanoes, floods, oil spills and radioactive fallout cause massive death of people, pigs, bats and birds. These disasters also impact the immune health of survivors. All harbor viruses.
Paul Stamets

When the camera is looking back at our planet Earth, it's the tiniest of specks somewhere out there in the universe. So we do have a new sense of proportion. Of course the volcanoes and the magma under us just remind us of that.
Werner Herzog
Image
How powerful social mores are! Only a spider's web lies across the volcano, yet it refrains from erupting.
Karl Kraus
Image
Heavy metal is a universal energy -- it's the sound of a volcano. It's rock, it's earth shattering. Somewhere in our primal being we understand.
Billy Corgan
Image
I've sat looking down into a volcano that could blow at any moment I've helped catch a shark and several rattlesnakes I let a tarantula walk across my hand, and I ate rat soup.
Alan Alda
Image
The most precious wine is produced upon the sides of volcanoes. Now bold and inspiring ideals are only born of a clear head that stands over a glowing heart.
Horace Mann
Image
Public life is constantly aware of the volcano.
Werner Herzog
Image
Well, it had to be about the stories and the people who live under the volcano, what kind of new gods do they create? What sort of demons? And of course North Korea falls clearly into this category since the socialist revolution at the end of the Second World War. Somehow they adopted the myth of the power and dynamics of their volcano.
Werner Herzog
Image
The human race likes to give itself airs. One good volcano can produce more greenhouse gases in a year than the human race has in its entire history.
Ray Bradbury
Image
Wives? she asked, interrupting him. For a moment, he had assumed she was tuning to the novel. Then he saw her waiting, suspicious eyes, so he replied cautiously, None active, as if wives were volcanoes.
John le Carre
Image
I can remember the morning after President Nixon won re-election in 1972. His chief of staff, H.R. Haldeman, called a Cabinet meeting and told the members: 'You are all a bunch of burned-out volcanoes' and asked for their resignations.
Helen Thomas
Image
It's the arrogance of man to think that man can change the climate of the world. Only nature can change the climate. A volcano, for instance.
Tom DeLay
Image
Some of 'em [virtues] like extinct volcanoes, with a strong memory or fire and brimstone.
Douglas William Jerrold
Image
I went to volcanoes where I knew that there was a lot of mythology around them there was something like the creation of gods and monsters and demons.
