More quotes by Margaret Thatcher
I can cope with nine of them, so they ought to be able to stand one of me. They could end the tiresomeness and stubbornness by giving me what I want.
Margaret Thatcher

Margaret Thatcher
No Western nation has to build a wall round itself to keep its people in.

Margaret Thatcher

Margaret Thatcher
Countries trade with each other - or to be more precise people buy and sell from each other across frontiers - because that is the way to advance their interests. We do not need to beg people to trade with us - as long as we have something that people want, of a quality they expect and at a price they are prepared to pay.
Margaret Thatcher
I think, historically, the term 'Thatcherism' will be seen as a compliment.
Margaret Thatcher
The Third World is very much like the First World - just poorer: what works for the West will work for the rest as well.
Margaret Thatcher
There are always dangers about. Therefore you must always keep your defences strong.
Margaret Thatcher
And what a prize we have to fight for: no less than the chance to banish from our land the dark divisive clouds of Marxist socialism.
Margaret Thatcher
If... many influential people have failed to understand, or have just forgotten, what we were up against in the Cold War and how we overcame it, they are not going to be capable of securing, let alone enlarging, the gains that liberty has made.
Margaret Thatcher
When you hold back the successful, you penalize those who need help.
