I saw Mercury Prize-winners Alt-J for the first time recently, touring their debut album ‘An Awesome Wave,’ and I’m still riding the high: they’re the most musically dynamic and exciting band to have poured tune into my lug holes live since Bellowhead.
I keep trying to listen when I’m in a big wave, but I really don’t hear anything.
This is the front edge of the spiritual, psychological movement and is where the tools of psychology have finally come together to create a mass healing. I think spiritual psychology is the next wave.

Wave after wave of love flooded the stage and washed over me, the beginning of the one great durable romance of my life.

The Severing is a catastrophe: an event that does not take place ‘at’ a certain ‘point’ in linear time, but a wave that ripples out in many dimensions, and in whose wake we are caught.

When you become president, they don’t give you a magic wand that you wave. You have to get legislation passed. You have to get agencies to run programs.
Famous people feel that they must perpetually be on the crest of the wave, not realising that it is against all the rules of life. You can’t be on top all the time, it isn’t natural.
There’s a risk to everything you do. You can take off on a one-foot wave and get hurt; you can take off on a ten-foot wave and get hurt. You just don’t think about it at all. You just go for it. When you kick out of a really big wave, it feels pretty damn good. You want to do it again.
I never thought of us as a punk band, a metal band, or a new wave band. Just as a band band.

I’m not one of those people who say last year I caught a fish this big or I surfed a wave 20 feet or something. It’s a matter of what I do today. Everything else is a pleasurable memory.
From wearable sensors to video game treatments, everyone seems to be looking to technology as the next wave of innovation for mental health care.

There was a time when I felt I should do everything that was offered to me, you know, ride the wave.
A lot of times in life, it’s personal choices that you’re making, actively, and then there’s a myriad of forces and circumstances that are out of our control. And without even realizing it, you’re riding a wave of events that you have no control of.
I believe in what I call ‘the surfer’s theory.’ You see a really, really big wave. You keep surfing, keep going forward. You just don’t look back.
If I could wave a magic wand and be anything, I’d be a really respected, really successful author. That’s a hard combination to get, though. I really enjoy acting, and it’s easier, frankly.

In a way Girls Aloud were the first wave of modern celebrity. When we started out there were no camera phones clicking away.

I went from silent films to watching French new wave cinema. I became entrapped by it all. That’s when I knew I wanted to do film. The moment you start looking at film from a critique point of view – there’s a difference between watching a film as an audience and with a critical point of view.
People are naming it the Third Wave, the Information Age, etc. but I would say those are basically technological descriptions, and this next shift is not about technology – although obviously it will be influenced and in some cases expressed by technologies.
Tapping therapy is absolutely brilliant. Stephen Gately from Boyzone, God rest his soul, told me about it. It’s just a little tap that focuses the mind away from that wave of panic and adrenalin that shoots into your body.
The guitar influence that affected my songwriting came from the New Wave of British Heavy Metal.
When all this fame first comes, it’s like being hit by a giant wave. You panic and think if you can just calm down and see where it’s going, you’ll be okay. Then you become more relaxed.
I go back and forth, but I never wanted to be the photographer of the gay and lesbian community. I will wave a rainbow flag proudly, but I am not a singular identity. I think a singular identity isn’t very interesting, and I’m a little bit more multifaceted as a person than that.
For me, the banner that I want to wave in terms of giving a jump start to writers of any gender is just to make female protagonists as complex as their male counterparts.

Ultimately, rugby players are like surfers. You look for the perfect wave, but you don’t always find it. And if you did, you’d probably pack up and try something else.
The French repulsed wave after wave of frontal attacks at Dien Bien Phu. The 1968 Tet offensive against the U.S. was a military disaster that effectively destroyed the Viet Cong. But Giap persisted and prevailed.
I’ve always thought – and I don’t even know if I’d be right for the part – that Jean Seberg would make a great biopic. She was in Jean-Luc Godard’s ‘Breathless,’ she played Joan of Arc. She had this eventful and traumatic adulthood, she thought the FBI was after her, and she became a darling of the French New Wave.
I do like the ocean wave, actually. I’m born under the sign of Cancer – the sign of the crab – so I like coastal areas and sunny beaches and such – although not the wide-open and deep seas.
My kids would watch from the window and wave to me during batting practice.
