More quotes by Edgar Degas
What a horrible thing yellow is.
Edgar Degas
One must have a high opinion of a work of art - not the work one is creating at the moment, but of that which one desires to achieve one day. Without this it is not worthwhile working.
Edgar Degas
He once said that he wished to be famous, but unknown.
Edgar Degas
There is too much talk and gossip pictures are apparently made, like stock-market prices, by competition of people eager for profits... All this traffic sharpens our intelligence and falsifies our judgment.
Edgar Degas
the moods of sadness that come over anyone who takes up art... these dismal moods have very little compensation.
Edgar Degas
Realism is more important than the sentiment of the picture.
Edgar Degas
Be sure to give the same expression to a person's face that you give to his body.
Edgar Degas
If I could have had my own way, I would have confined myself to black and white.
Edgar Degas
The fascinating thing, is not to show the source of light, but the effect of light.
Edgar Degas
A picture is a thing which requires as much knavery, as much malice, and as much vice as the perpetration of a crime. Make it untrue and add an accent of truth.
Edgar Degas
It is people's movement that consoles us. If the leaves of a tree did not move, how sad would be the tree - and so should we.
Edgar Degas
You must aim high, not in what you are going to do at some future date, but in what you are going to make yourself do to-day. Otherwise, working is just a waste of time.
Edgar Degas
I feel as a horse must feel when the beautiful cup is given to the jockey.
Edgar Degas
The air we see in the paintings of the old masters is never the air we breathe.
Edgar Degas
Muses work all day long and then at night get together and dance.
Edgar Degas
There is love, and there is work and we have only one heart.
Edgar Degas
For those who don't know what they are doing, painting is easy. For those who do know what they are doing, painting is difficult.
Edgar Degas
What a delightful thing is the conversation of specialists! One understands absolutely nothing and it's charming.
Edgar Degas
One does not marry art. One ravishes it.
Edgar Degas
Make people's portraits in familiar and typical attitudes.
