OPENING EVENT "We all have a dwarf inside us. It is as if there is something of an essence or a concentrated form of each of us that is screaming to get out and that is a perfectly formed representation of who we are."

CHARACTER "I have always felt my characters all belong to the same family, whether they be fictional or non-fictional. They have no shadows, they are without pasts, they all emerge from the darkness….desperate and solitary rebels with no language. Inevitably they suffer because of this. They know their rebellion is doomed to failure, but they continue without respite, wounded, struggling on their own without assistance."

WERNER HERZOG LIVE Was the 20th century a mistake? What is the climate of excitement which makes film possible? How were the colossal prehistoric menhirs of Brittany erected? How do you move a steamship in similar fashion over a mountain? Why is tourism a sin? Why is travel on foot a virtue? These are some of the questions the legendary film director Werner Herzog will be discussing with Paul Holdengräber, Director of Public Programs at the New York Public Library - assisted by copious images, music and film clips 'curated' by Herzog himself.

LANDSCAPE "What I look for in landscapes in general is a humane spot for man, an area worthy of human beings. The search for utopian landscapes is probably an endless one, but I do know that by staying in one place I will never find them.... the starting point for many of my films is a landscape, whether it be a real place or an imaginary or hallucinatory one from a dream, and when I write a script I often describe landscapes that I have never seen. I know that somewhere they do exist and I have never failed to find them."

HEART OF GLASS "Imagination functions very well under hypnosis. I would not just ask someone to write a poem. I told them: ‘You are the first one who has set foot on a foreign island for centuries. It is overgrown with jungle, full of strange birds. You come across a gigantic cliff, and on closer inspection this entire cliff is made of pure emerald where hundreds of years ago a Holy Monk had spent his entire life with a chisel and hammer engraving a poem into the wall. It took him his entire life to engrave only three lines of a poem. And you open your eyes and are the first one to see it. You read out what you see to me."

"My honest belief is that the images in my films are your images too. Somehow deep in your subconscious, you will find them lurking dormant like sleeping friends." *All Quotes: Herzog on Herzog, edited by Paul Cronin, published by Faber
