Additional quotes by Edgar Degas

Drawing is not what you see but what you must make others see.

I'm glad to say I haven't found my style yet. I'd be bored to death.

I assure you no art was ever less spontaneous than mine. What I do is the result of reflection and study of the great masters; of inspiration, spontaneity, temperament — temperament is the word — I know nothing.
