Understanding this quote
The speaker rejects belief in God but says they do believe in Picasso. The contrast places religious faith beside confidence in a human being. “Believe in Picasso” may mean trusting, admiring, or accepting Picasso as someone whose importance feels real and convincing. The quote does not specify exactly what kind of belief this is, leaving the comparison deliberately open.
