Werner Herzog, Conquest of the Useless: Reflections from the Making of Fitzcarraldo“I travel without barely any luggage. Just a second set of underwear and binoculars and a map and a toothbrush.”
Werner Herzog“Whoever dedicates his life to searching out particular connections of nature will spontaneously be confronted with the question how they harmoniously fit into the whole.”
