Frida Kahlo — "I want to be worthy of you, of the love you have given me."

"Nothing is worth more than laughter. It is strength to laugh and to abandon oneself, to be light. Tragedy is the most ridiculous thing."

"I wish I could do whatever I liked behind the curtain of 'madness'. Then: I'd arrange flowers, all day long, I'd paint; pain, love and tenderness, I would laugh as much as I feel like at the stupidity…"

"Feet, what do I need you for when I have wings to fly?"

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

"You didn't understand what I am. I am love. I am pleasure. I am essence. I am an idiot. I am tenacious. I am. I simply am."
