Perhaps this is the most important thing for me to take back from beach-living: simply the memory that each cycle of the tide is valid; each cycle of the wave is valid; each cycle of a relationship is valid.
Back in 1995, I saw an incredible wave coming. The Internet. I knew I needed to be a part of it no matter what I did.
The drawing of a ‘Pipeline Wave’ started with Billabong as a commission for their 2009 Pipeline Masters campaign. My ‘Pipeline Wave’ drawing later became the start of my ‘Waterworks Collection’ for gallery prints.
The plane is simply abstracting the power stored in the wave by a distant gale, and using it to counteract gravity. And if the work be continued long enough, or a multitude of planes be continually drawing on the reservoir of power, the wave must inevitably be flattened.
Back in the 1980s parts of our country were devastated by de-industrialisation. This wave of globalisation and the first fruits of technological innovation destroyed industrial jobs or exported them to low-wage economies. The loss of work had a devastating impact.
I used to switch up my cologne every two to three months, get a new wave – Dolce, Versace, Burberry. But Black Orchid, that joint stayed. That’s the smell of beauty that stays on you… and girls love Tom Ford.
Everyone’s saying I’m hating on Seattle, but they’re taking that out of context. What I really meant to say was I’m the only new wave artist to really break out of Seattle.
My parents came to the United States in the early years of this century as part of a wave of Russian Jewish immigrants seeking freedom and opportunity in the New World.
My experience is that you can’t possibly win against whatever the tidal wave is that’s coming at you.
The sailor’s life is at the best a life of danger. He pursues honor on the mountain wave and finds it in the battle and in the storm, and never did more distinguished chivalry display itself than in the conduct of our seamen during the late war.
Intellectuals know how to answer the question, ‘What God do I believe in?’ not only through the question of ‘What God do I abhor?’ Intellectuals can also answer the question of ‘What flag do I wave?’ without having to answer the question of ‘What flag do I burn.’
In some units it may suppress the motor discharge altogether, in some it may merely slow the motor discharge thus lessening the wave frequency of the contraction and so the tension.
I’m 21 years old, and it’s kind of uncomfortable for me to talk about, but I’m in the 1 percent as far as my income and tax bracket. But now that I’m here, there’s no amount of money you can wave in front of my face that will make me understand depriving people of human rights.
Nick’s mother and I were attentive, probably overly attentive – part of the first wave of parents obsessed with our children in a self-conscious way.
I have a lot of experience – not just with my ‘Me Too’ campaign but with survivors disclosing. I know that there is a wave of emotions that happens after that.
I have heard somewhere an argument that if the Industrial Revolution – economic development – had started in Africa rather than Europe, then sun and wave technology would now be at the forefront, not the old fossil fuels.
People who wave digital cameras at shows are the same people who sit in front of you at hockey games and wear those giant foam-rubber fingers that say, We’re number one!’
Conscious luxury is the wave of the future because everyone should be aware of what they put on their bodies just like they are aware of what they consume.
If someone says ‘grunge’ or ‘punk,’ you know what the sound is, but if you say ‘No Wave,’ it’s kind of mysterious. That was the most interesting part and should have been the most inspirational thing about it… here’s this collective sonic insanity, and none of it sounds anything alike.
I’ve been surfing several times, and I’m terrible at it. But what I found was that you’re usually waiting on the board, hanging out, watching the waves come in. And one that you think is a big wave is not actually one.
Nicolas Sarkozy said he could see a wave rising. For once he was right. The wave’s coming; it’s high, its strong, and it’s going to smack him in the face.
I had a briefcase at one point, but it was a kind of 1980s New Wave briefcase. It was made of some kind of cardboard and it had metal hinges. It was kind of faux industrial looking, and I used to carry my books in it rather than a backpack. I didn’t want to have normal student accoutrements.
TV and film were always governing passions of mine, and that first wave of great HBO shows in the early years of the millennium was feeding my desire for fiction more than the books I was reading.
I can see a distinct anti-Modi and anti-NDA wave across the country.
Ambient Devices is what I call part of the Third Wave of Internet devices.
Palantir is the new wave of companies solving big problems for big industries.
I never know what the future holds, so I’m just going to make all the power moves I can, ride that wave of success and accomplish everything I’m supposed to accomplish. I never set no limits for myself.
