More quotes by Margaret Thatcher
Let me give you my vision: A man's right to work as he will, to spend what he earns, to own property, to have the state as servant and not as master. These are the British inheritance. They are the essence of a free country, and on that freedom all of our other freedoms depend.
Margaret Thatcher
We must not fall into the mistake of thinking that it is America that trades with Taiwan or Europe that trades with Asia. The truth is that it is American companies that trade with Taiwanese companies.
Margaret Thatcher
If it's me against 48, I feel sorry for the 48.
Margaret Thatcher
You can't lead from the crowd.
Margaret Thatcher
It's the Labour Government that have brought us record peacetime taxation. They've got the usual Socialist disease - they've run out of other people's money.
Margaret Thatcher
(On The International Criminal Court) For the victors of the Cold War to submit to an unelected, unaccountable, and almost certainly hostile body such as that envisaged would be the ultimate irony.
Margaret Thatcher

Margaret Thatcher
To cure the British disease with socialism was like trying to cure leukaemia with leeches.
Margaret Thatcher
[On Ronald Reagan:] Poor dear, there's nothing between his ears.
Margaret Thatcher

Margaret Thatcher
Please don't use the word tough. People might get the impression that I don't care. And I do care, very deeply. Resilient, I think.
Margaret Thatcher
There are dangers in consensus: it could be an attempt to satisfy people holding no particular views about anything. ... No great party can survive except on the basis of firm beliefs about what it wants to do.
Margaret Thatcher
If a woman like Eva Peron with no ideals can get that far, think how far I can go with the ideals that I have.
Margaret Thatcher
Standing in the middle of the road is very dangerous you get knocked down by the traffic from both sides.
Margaret Thatcher
Let our children grow tall and some taller than others if they have it in them to do so.
Margaret Thatcher
In the same period that the Americans have lived under one constitution our French friends notched up five. A Punch cartoon has a 19th century Englishman asking a librarian for a copy of the French constitution, only to be told: 'I am sorry Sir, we do not stock periodicals.'
Margaret Thatcher
Wars are not caused by the buildup of weapons. They are caused when an aggressor believes he can achieve his objectives at an acceptable price.
Margaret Thatcher
The battle for women's rights has largely been won. The days when they were demanded and discussed in strident tones should be gone forever. I hate those strident tones we hear from some Women's Libbers.
Margaret Thatcher
Socialist governments traditionally do make a financial mess. They always run out of other people's money. It's quite a characteristic of them.
Margaret Thatcher
I believe we should continue to have a partnership of national states each retaining the right to protect its vital interests, but developing more effectively than at present the habit of working together.
