I recorded a few bits from The Burden of Dreams Werner Herzog documentary for my ipod because there's no seriousness like German seriousness: Herzog on making art. Herzog on the jungle: Part 1 and Part 2. The sound level is low so you'll have to crank up the volume also note they take a few seconds to load up.
Elsewhere: Werner Herzog shot with an air rifle, The famous Werner Herzog eats his shoe documentary, Kinski on Herzog, and finally a gallery of stills from the official WH site. More information and fun trivia in his wikipedia entry.

Ha! This is so funny and timely to post!
Recently we've been walking around the house talking in a Herzog-like accent, commenting on the the mundane in the most apocolyptic tone we can construe, [conjering Herzog] "I do not see a bouquet of flowers; I see life harvested for our pleasure, cut down mercilessly, and left to die in a pool of water."
If you start talking like that, it's hard to stop.
"I see planets that don't exist and landscapes that have only been dreamed." Herzog rocks, good post!
