Frida Kahlo

I never paint dreams or nightmares. I paint my own reality.

My work is the synthesis of my life, my love, my fears, my pains, my desires, my dreams, my hopes, my beliefs, my thoughts, and my struggles.

I am not afraid of death, but I am afraid of pain.

I wish I could write to you, but I can't. I can only paint.

I want to be with you, to touch you, to kiss you, to feel you.

I am not a feminist. I am a human being.

I love you with all my heart, but I hate you with all my soul.

I will paint you, me, and the world.

I am not an artist. I am a woman who paints.

I am not an angel, but I am not a devil either. I am a woman.

I never painted dreams. I painted my own reality.

I drank to drown my sorrows, but the damned things learned how to swim.

I am my own muse, the subject I know best.

I think that little by little I’ll be able to solve my problems and survive.

Diego, there have been two great accidents in my life. One was the trolley, and the other was Diego. Diego was by far the worst.

The most important thing for everyone is to be able to live and be happy.

I wish I could live without my uterus.

I want to be inside your dreams.

I tried to drown my sorrows, but the bastards learned how to swim.

What do I do with my love? I keep it.
