I love you more than my own skin and even though you don’t love me the same way, you love me anyways, don’t you? And if you don’t, I’ll always have the hope that you do, and i’m satisfied with that. Love me a little. I adore you.
Frida Kahlo

Frida Kahlo
I paint my own reality.
Frida Kahlo
Feet, what do I need you for when I have wings to fly?
Frida Kahlo
I don’t like the gringos at all. They are very boring and all have faces like unbaked rolls.
Frida Kahlo
I never paint dreams or nightmares. I paint my own reality.
Frida Kahlo
Can one invent verbs? I want to tell you one: I sky you, so my wings extend so large to love you without measure.
Frida Kahlo
I drank to drown my sorrows, but the damned things learned how to swim.
Frida Kahlo
