Joseph Conrad wrote it in "Heart of Darkness"; It was quoted in T.S. Eliot's "The Waste Land"; Then Brando said it in "Apocalypse Now". Then the Peterman Catalog guy said it on "Seinfeld". Now it's a pop culture reference.

Col. Kurtz (Marlon Brando) said it in Apocalypse Now but those lines were taken from the book "Heart of Darkness" by Conrad as was the entire premise of the movie

Those were the dying words of Col. Kurtz in Apocalypse Now. Allegedly he is referring to the horrors of war.

That was from Heart of Darkness by Joseph Conrad.
Apocolypse Now was roughly based on the book.

it first appeared in Conad's novel, Heart of Darkness. Had to be one of the most boring books that I was ever forced to read. . .
