More quotes by Margaret Thatcher
We should not expect the state to appear in the guise of an extravagant good fairy at every christening, a loquacious companion at every stage of life's journey, and the unknown mourner at every funeral.
Margaret Thatcher
We have become a grandmother.
Margaret Thatcher
Power is like being a lady... if you have to tell people you are, you aren't.
Margaret Thatcher
Let us never forget this fundamental truth: The State has no source of money other than the money people themselves earn.

Margaret Thatcher
No one would remember the Good Samaritan if he'd only had good intentions he had money as well.
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
Hope is no basis for a defense policy.
Margaret Thatcher
The Nuremburg trials were attacked at the time as 'victor's justice'. And this is precisely what they were - and were intended to be.
Margaret Thatcher
Peace is hard work and we must not allow people to forget it.
Margaret Thatcher
I want my money back!
Margaret Thatcher
