More quotes by Margaret Thatcher
If you set out to be liked, you will accomplish nothing.
Margaret Thatcher
There are too few rich and too few profits.
Margaret Thatcher
[On George H.W. Bush:] By 1990 I had learned that I had to defer to him in conversation and not to stint the praise. If that was what was necessary to secure Britain's interests and influence, I had no hesitation in eating a little humble pie.
Margaret Thatcher
If we are safe today, it is because America has stood with us. If we are to remain safe tomorrow, it will be because America remains powerful and self-confident. When, therefore, the Americans face difficulties, we need to say to them more clearly: We are with you.
Margaret Thatcher
We have become a grandmother.
Margaret Thatcher
Tyranny must not prevail.
Margaret Thatcher
Standing in the middle of the road is very dangerous you get knocked down by the traffic from both sides.
Margaret Thatcher
Isn't a policy of conventional weapons, with the terrible bombs raining down, with the missiles, with the aircraft, with the submarines, with the torpedoes, with the tanks, with chemical weapons - isn't that based on the possibility of threat?
Margaret Thatcher
Look at a day when you are supremely satisfied at the end. It's not a day when you lounge around doing nothing it's a day you've had everything to do and you've done it.
Margaret Thatcher
When I look at him [Edward Heath] and he looks at me, I don't feel that it is a man looking at a woman. More like a woman being looked at by another woman.
Margaret Thatcher
I have the money and they won't get their hands on it.
Margaret Thatcher
I am in politics because of the conflict between good and evil, and I believe that in the end good will triumph.
Margaret Thatcher
The larger the slice taken by government, the smaller the cake available for everyone.
Margaret Thatcher
I want my money back!
Margaret Thatcher
I think perhaps we manage our revolutions much more quietly in this country.
Margaret Thatcher
[On Ronald Reagan:] Poor dear, there's nothing between his ears.
Margaret Thatcher
My first guiding principle is this: willing and active co-operation between independent sovereign states. Europe will be stronger precisely because it has France as France, Spain as Spain, Britain as Britain, each with its own customs, traditions and identity. It would be folly to try to fit them into some sort of identikit European personality.
Margaret Thatcher
Of course it's the same old story. Truth usually is the same old story.
Margaret Thatcher
If you lead a country like Britain, a strong country, a country which has taken a lead in world affairs in good times and in bad, a country that is always reliable, then you have to have a touch of iron about you.
Margaret Thatcher
President Numeiri of Sudan is said to have remarked of Gadaffi that he was 'a man with a split personality - both of them evil'.
