More quotes by Edgar Degas
A painting requires a little mystery, some vagueness, and some fantasy. When you always make your meaning perfectly plain you end up boring people.
Edgar Degas
These women of mine are decent, simple human beings who have no other concern than that of their physical condition... it is as though one were watching through a keyhole.
Edgar Degas
Even in front of nature one must compose.
Edgar Degas
There is no such thing as Intelligence one has intelligence of this or that. One must have intelligence only for what one is doing.
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
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
I should like to be famous and unknown.
Edgar Degas
Be sure to give the same expression to a person's face that you give to his body.
Edgar Degas
I feel as a horse must feel when the beautiful cup is given to the jockey.
Edgar Degas
Taste! It doesn't exist. An artist makes beautiful things without being aware of it.
Edgar Degas
So that's the telephone? They ring, and you run.
Edgar Degas
the moods of sadness that come over anyone who takes up art... these dismal moods have very little compensation.
Edgar Degas
A picture is first of all a product of the artist's imagination, it must never be a copy.
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
I have been, or seemed, hard with everyone because I was carried away by a sort of brutality born of my distrust in myself and my ill-humor. I have felt so badly equipped, so soft, in spite of the fact that my attitude towards art seemed to me so just. I was disgusted with everyone, and especially myself.
Edgar Degas
Women can never forgive me they hate me, they feel that I am disarming them. I show them without their coquetry.
Edgar Degas
One does not marry art. One ravishes it.
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
I would like to be famous but unknown.
Edgar Degas
An artist must approach his work in the spirit of the criminal about to commit a crime.
Edgar Degas
