Margaret Thatcher
I was turned out because I said to Europe no, no, no. That no, no , no has now turned into yes, yes. Two yes's not three because he got the Social Chapter out and he's reserved his position on the single currency.
Margaret Thatcher
Europe will never be like America. Europe is a product of history. America is a product of philosophy.
Margaret Thatcher
The Russians put guns before butter. We put just about everything before guns.
Margaret Thatcher
Platitudes? Yes, there are platitudes. Platitudes are there because they are true.
