Additional quotes by Edgar Degas

I should like to be famous and unknown.

A painting is above all a product of the artist's imagination, it must never be a copy. If, at a later stage, he wants to add two or three touches from nature, of course it doesn't spoil anything.

Seni bukan tentang apa yang kita lihat, tetapi tentang apa yang kita membuat orang lain lihat.
