The only thing I know is that I paint because I need to, and I paint whatever passes through my head without any other consideration.

I am in agreement with everything my father taught me and nothing my mother taught me.

Of the opposite sex, I have the moustache and, in general, the face.

The most important part of the body is the brain. Of my face, I like the eyebrows and eyes. Aside from that, I like nothing. My head is too small.

I am happy to be alive, as long as I can paint.

Really, I do not know whether my paintings are surrealist or not, but I do know that they are the frankest expression of myself.

They thought I was a Surrealist, but I wasn't. I never painted dreams. I painted my own reality.

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

Since my subjects have always been my sensations, my states of mind and the profound reactions that life has been producing in me, I have frequently objectified all this in figures of myself, which were the most sincere and real thing that I could do in order to express what I felt inside and outside of myself.

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