More quotes by Margaret Thatcher
We shall take whatever action is necessary to contain the growth of the money supply. The government, unlike so many of its predecessors, will face up to economic realities.
Margaret Thatcher
The choice facing the nation is between two totally different ways of life. 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 and bring together men and women from all walks of life who share a belief in freedom.
Margaret Thatcher

Margaret Thatcher
The European single currency is bound to fail, economically, politically and indeed socially, though the timing, occasion and full consequences are all necessarily still unclear.
Margaret Thatcher
As a motive for terror, religion has more often than not required a good deal of lubrication by lucre.
Margaret Thatcher
Ronald Reagan won the Cold War without firing a shot.
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
I want to get totally rid of class distinction. As someone put it one of the papers this morning: Marks and Spencer have triumphed over Karl Marx and Engels.
Margaret Thatcher
We need to create a mood where it is everywhere thought morally right for as many people as possible to acquire capital.
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
Dictators can be deterred, they can be crushed - but they can never be appeased.
Margaret Thatcher
The real case against socialism is not its economic inefficiency, though on all sides there is evidence of that. Much more fundamental is its basic immorality.
Margaret Thatcher
