Once an object has been incorporated in a picture it accepts a new destiny.
Georges BraqueRead
Truth exists, only falsehood has to be invented.
Interpretation
Truth is inherent, while deception requires creation and imagination.
Georges Braque's quote suggests that truth is a fundamental aspect of reality that naturally exists, while falsehoods are not part of that reality and have to be fabricated. This reflects the idea that honesty is simple and straightforward, whereas lies involve complexity and effort to maintain.
In practice
During a debate, one could use this quote to emphasize the importance of truthfulness.
Once an object has been incorporated in a picture it accepts a new destiny.
With age, art and life become one.
The painting is finished when the idea has disappeared.
There is only one valuable thing in art: the thing you cannot explain.
One has to guard against a formula that is good for everything, that can interpret reality in addition to the other arts, and that rather than creating can only result in a style, or a stylization.

Really important meetings are planned by the souls long before the bodies see each other. Generally speaking, these meetings occur when we reach a limit, when we need to die and be reborn emotionally. These meetings are waiting for us, but more often than not, we avoid them happening. If we are desperate, though, if we have nothing to lose, or if we are full of enthusiasm for life, then the unknown reveals itself, and our universe changes direction.
A man sometimes devotes his life to a desire which he is not sure will ever be fulfilled. Those who laugh at this folly are, after all, no more than mere spectators of life.
Whatever men expect, they soon come to think they have a right to; the sense of disappointment can, with very little skill on our part, be turned into a sense of injury. (senior devil speaking)
Suddenly, as rare things will, it vanished.
There is nothing that war has ever achieved that we could not better achieve without it.
That which we die for lives as wholly as that which we live for dies.
