It's not that I don't value my life. It's just that I love taking chances, testing myself, stepping over the line.
Its not that I dont value my life. Its just that I love taking chances, testing myself, stepping over the line.
Ever since I was little, I've always liked to smash things.
My music is very innovative, in a class by itself. Nobody else is saying anything of value. What I'm trying to do is get people to think, to alter their consciousness. It's not your typical platinum formula for success.
I want to cause a change with my life, make the world a little better.
The thing about animals is that they don't judge you. They accept you the way you are.
I'm more interested in having a place to work out my voice and my body than I am in having furniture.
I don't like fashion. I don't like art. I do like smashing up expensive things.
I'm trying to encourage more women to be themselves, rather than what men want them to be. I don't believe in patronizing either sex.
I never strike out at any life form. The only things I attack are icons of conspicuous consumption. People put objects in front of their life, in front of anything that has real importance. They make this 'thing' their God.
The important thing is to build up my cardiovascular system, so I have the stamina to do stunts. To me, stepping over the line, taking a chance and succeeding is the ultimate freedom, be it in rock and roll or when executing a really challenging routine.
Do I have to use my feet? Can I knock the window out with my head?
The act of taking my own life is not something that I do without a lot of thought. I don't believe that people should take their own lives without deep and thoughtful reflection over a considerable period of time. I do believe strongly, however, that the right to do so is one of the most fundamental rights anyone in a free society should have. For me much of the world makes no sense, but my feelings about what I am doing ring loud and clear to an inner ear and to a place where there is no self, only calm. Love always, Wendy.
