“Mais Frida ne se représente pas comme un personnage sacré, car elle constate son état avec une crudité toute profane. Au lieu de du plier le Ciel de la délivrer, elle regarde droit devant elle, comme pour se défier (ou défier son reflet dans le miroir) et contraindre le spectateur à affronter sa terrible situation sans flancher.”
Hayden Herrera

“There is nothing to do but put up with it. I have a cat's luck." Her indomitable will had begun to triumph over despair and apathy.”
Hayden Herrera, Frida: A Biography of Frida Kahlo

“could have been a second or thousands of years. . . . I was happy. I blurred the “door” with my hand and it “disappeared.” I ran with my secret and my joy as far as the furthermost corner of the patio of my house, and always in the same place under a cedar tree, I cried out and laughed, surprised at being alone with my great happiness and with the so vivid memory of the little girl. Thirty-four years have passed since I experienced this magic friendship and every time that I remember it, it revives and becomes larger and larger inside of my world.”
Hayden Herrera, Frida: A Biography of Frida Kahlo
