If God is eternal and never changes then his personality is eternal. He could not be immutable if he at one point created a personality for himself. Yet even the creation of a personality requires desire and purpose, which require a personality. So personality is eternal. With this in mind then the ability to feel any emotion such as pleasure and pain are as eternal as God. God did not create pain. Pain has always existed as a part of God. When did God first feel pain? Did he have the ability to never feel it? If so why did he allow himself to feel it? If he decided to experience pain so that it would intensify love would that mean that he wasn't in control of how intense love can become, or he had a limit to experiencing its intensity and only saw using his ability to feel pain as a way of provoking it to a more intense state? If that is so then God has limits but his limits are not from externalities but from his own internal essence. | | |

| Herzog trivia
* According to director Werner Herzog, Klaus Kinski threatened to abandon the film entirely at one point during the shooting. Werner Herzog says he threatened to kill Klaus Kinski and then turn the gun on himself if Klaus Kinski left - and later declared he was quite prepared to do so. Klaus Kinski stated in interviews that Werner Herzog wielded a pistol to emphasize the threat, but Werner Herzog denies this. "You leave this jungle now and you'll find eight bullets in you and the ninth one will be for me." - to Klaus Kinski on the set of Fitzcarraldo
* On Klaus Kinski: "People think we had a love-hate relationship. Well, I did not love him, nor did I hate him. We had mutual respect for each other, even as we both planned each other's murder."
* Joaquin Phoenix was in car accident on a winding canyon road that flipped his car over. Shaken and confused, Phoenix heard a tapping on his window and a voice say, "Just relax". Unable to see the man, Phoenix replied, "I'm fine. I am relaxed". Then managed to see that the man was Werner Herzog, and Herzog replied, 'No, you're not'. After helping Phoenix out of the wreckage, Herzog phoned in an ambulance and vanished.
* In late 2005, during an interview with journalist Mark Kermode regarding Grizzly Man, a sniper opened fire with an air rifle towards them. Kermode panicked when Herzog calmly said, "someone is shooting at us". Shortly thereafter, a bullet hit Herzog. An unmoved Herzog insisted on continuing the interview and said, "It was not a significant bullet. I am not afraid."
* Herzog once promised to eat his shoe if a young American film student went out and actually made the film he was always only talking about. The young student was Errol Morris, who met the challenge with his off-beat 1978 pet cemetery documentary Gates of Heaven (and went on to make The Thin Blue Line and Fast, Cheap and Out of Control ). Herzog makes good on his promise in the film "Werner Herzog Eats His Shoe", directed by Les Blank.
