Eugène Delacroix

I live in company with a body, a silent companion, exacting and eternal.

The source of genius is imagination alone, the refinement of the senses that sees what others do not see, or sees them differently.

Artists who seek perfection in everything are those who cannot attain it in anything.

Experience has two things to teach: the first, that we must correct a great deal; the second, that we must not correct too much.
