Georges Braque
I like the rule that corrects emotion.
Georges Braque
Work to perfect the mind. There is no certitude but in what the mind conceives.
Georges Braque
Perspective starts from one viewpoint and never gets away from it. But the viewpoint is quite unimportant. It is though someone were to draw profiles all his life, leading people to think that a man has only one eye.
Georges Braque
I have made a great discovery. I no longer believe in anything.
Georges Braque

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
One has to arrive at a specific temperature, at which the objects become malleable.
Georges Braque
Progress in art does not consist in reducing limitations, but in knowing them better.
Georges Braque
I do not think my painting has ever been revolutionary. It was not directed against any kind of painting. I have never wanted to prove that I was right and someone else wrong.
Georges Braque
The space between the dish and the pitcher, that I paint also.
Georges Braque
Art is a wound turned into light.
Georges Braque
