Georges Braque
Whatever is in common is true but likeness is false.
Georges Braque
Reality only reveals itself when it is illuminated by a ray of poetry.
Georges Braque
I have made a great discovery. I no longer believe in anything.
Georges Braque
Work to perfect the mind. There is no certitude but in what the mind conceives.
Georges Braque
When one reaches this state of harmony between things and one's self, one reaches a state of perfect freedom and peace-which makes everything possible and right. Life becomes perpetual revelation.
Georges Braque
Critics should help people see for themselves they should never try to define things, or impose their own explanations, though I admit that if... a critic's explanations serve to increase the general obscurity, that's all to the good.
Georges Braque
I do not believe in objects. I believe only in their relationships.
Georges Braque

Georges Braque
To define a thing is to substitute the definition for the thing itself.
Georges Braque

Georges Braque

Georges Braque
It is not sufficient that what one paints should be made visible. It must be made tangible.
Georges Braque
Once an object has been incorporated in a picture it accepts a new destiny.
Georges Braque
I thought that from the moment someone else could do the same as myself, there was no difference between the pictures and they should not be signed. Afterwards I realized it was not so and began to sign my pictures again. Picasso had begun again anyhow.
Georges Braque
Thanks to the oval I have discovered the meaning of the horizontal and the vertical.
Georges Braque
Art is a wound turned into light.
Georges Braque
One has to arrive at a specific temperature, at which the objects become malleable.
Georges Braque
There is only one valuable thing in art: the thing you cannot explain.
Georges Braque
