Work may be your dominant thought, and joy an afterthought. But joy is your true purpose, and work the afterthought.
Alan Cohen
Image
Indigenous programs and policy will come within the Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet because Indigenous policy and programs should not be an add - on, they should not be an afterthought, but they should be at the heart of a good Australian Government.
Yitzhak Rabin
Image
I was never very good with either my hands or feet. It always seemed to me they'd just been stuck on as an afterthought during my making. Dreams didn't translate through sports, or music, dancing, carpentry, plumbing. I was the bookish kid, more at home in the pages of a fantasy than in the room in the town on the planet.

You are not an afterthought, you are not an accident.
Desmond Tutu
Image
For still I see that forethought spares afterthought and after-sorrow.
Amelia Barr

I'll decide to do a movie and then go oh, like Twilight fans are probably going to react to this or whatever. But that's always an afterthought. Like I don't plan things out based on other people's opinions of how like I think they're going to receive them. I do it like for the experience.
Kristen Stewart

Humour is not a postscript or an incidental afterthought - rather it is a serious and weighty part of the world's economy.
Oscar W. Firkins
Image
Humans are not the end result of predictable evolutionary progress, but rather a fortuitous cosmic afterthought, a tiny little twig on the enormously arborescent bush of life, which if replanted from seed, would almost surely not grow this twig again.
Stephen Jay Gould
Image
Every thought is an afterthought.
Hannah Arendt
Image
I am not an afterthought I am not an accident.
Desmond Tutu
Image
Forethought spares afterthought.
Amelia Barr

The church lies at the very center of the eternal purpose of God. It is not a divine afterthought.
John Stott
Image
People shouldn't notice what you're wearing before they notice you. You want people to register you first. 'Oh, what a nice jacket' should be an afterthought if you're doing it right.
Michael Kors
Image
I like to summarize what I regard as the pedestal-smashing messages of Darwin's revolution in the following statement, which might be chanted several times a day, like a Hare Krishna mantra, to encourage penetration into the soul: Humans are not the end result of predictable evolutionary progress, but rather a fortuitous cosmic afterthought.
Stephen Jay Gould

Here's why most campaigns get data wrong. They treat it as an afterthought and they treat it as sort of a logistic.
Ted Cruz
Image
I don't know why, but there's a certain element of panic in writing lyrics that I'm not sure I enjoy. I don't write lyrics first, ever. I've never done that. So, in a sense, the lyrics are a bit of an afterthought - it's music first.
Mike Patton
Image
The podcast was kind of an afterthought, because I was just excited about being on the radio. Then I found that the podcast listenership is some 20 times what people are listening to on the radio.

The culture precedes positive results. It doesn't get tacked on as an afterthought on your way to the victory stand. Champions behave like champions before they're champions: they have a winning standard of performance before they are winners.
Bill Walsh
Image
Afterthought makes the first resolve a liar.
Sophocles
Image
Start with the foreground. Compositions fail when the foreground is treated as an afterthought.
Robert Genn
Image
When the San Francisco Democrats treat foreign affairs as an afterthought, as they did, they behaved less like a dove or a hawk than like an ostrich - convinced it could shut out the world by hiding its head in the sand.
Jeane Kirkpatrick
Image
And as an afterthought, this too must be told: Some people have taken pure bullshit and turned it into gold.
Neil Young
Image
An unchurched christian is a grotesque anomaly. The New Testament knows nothing of such a person. For the church lies at the very center of the eternal purpose of God. It is not a divine afterthought. It is not an accident of history. On the contrary, the church is God's new community.
John Stott
Image
They may be big in Switzerland, but so are yodellers, and nobody wants to watch them fight. Heavyweight title fights should be huge events, not an after-thought in a country most famous for producing Toblerones [chocolate].
