Frida Kahlo

You deserve the best, the very best, because you are one of the few people in this world who are honest with themselves, and that is the only thing that really counts.

What do I do with my love, when the one I love is not here?

My blood is a miracle that travels the air of my veins from my heart to your heart.

The most important thing for everyone is to be happy.

I will always remember you with the smell of wet earth, my 'always' lover.

How can I be alone... I have myself.

I paint flowers so they will not die.

I knew that the world was a living organism in which the earth, the sky, the sea, and everything that exists, were all part of one being.

I leave you my portrait so that you will have my presence all the days and nights that I am away from you.

My path is my own, and I have chosen it. I will keep painting myself, because I know myself best.

I am in agreement with the revolution, with the struggle of the people, with the working class, with the peasants, with the students, with the intellectuals, with the artists, with all those who want a better world.

I want to be inside your dreams. I want to live in your mind.

The most absurd thing is to try to live without love.

I paint my reality, and I am not a surrealist.

I would like to give you everything that I have never had, or rather, that I have never known how to use.

The only good thing about life is that one can always make it better.

I love you more than my own skin and even though you don’t love me back the same way, you love me anyway, don’t you? And if you don’t, I will always have the hope that you will, and I will love you anyway.

My painting is a message of pain. It is the result of the total destruction of my happiness.

I want to be worthy of you, of the love you have given me.

I am not a mother, and I am not a wife. I am a painter.
