[Werner Herzog]
"And how does it happen that we are encountering each other
here at the end of the world?"
[Stefan Pashov (Philosopher, Forklift Driver)]
"I think that’s a logical place to find each other because
this place works almost as a natural selection for people who have this
intention to jump off the margin of the map and we all meet here, where all the
lines of the map converge. There is no point that is south of the South Pole. I
think there is a fair amount of the population here which are full-time
travelers and part-time workers. So, yes those are the professional dreamers.
They dream all the time. And I think through them the great cosmic dreams come
into fruition because the universe dreams to our dreams. And, I think that there
is many different ways for the reality to bring itself forward and dreaming is
definitely one of those ways."
From the film, "Encounters at the End of the World"

"In the upswing of a jet train
cooling into the sonic blues
of a new world horizon
soothing the answers of the afraid
in mundane pockets of strange insignificance,
a judgment inane"
excerpt from "Improbability of tongue and belly in Upswing"
