Margaret Thatcher
Remember the 'Parable of the Talents' in the New Testament? Christ exhorts us to be the best we can be by developing our skills and abilities, by succeeding in all our tasks and endeavors. What better description can there be of capitalism?
Margaret Thatcher
No Western nation has to build a wall round itself to keep its people in.
Margaret Thatcher
There might be new technology, but technological progress itself was nothing new - and over the years it had not destroyed jobs, but created them.
Margaret Thatcher

Margaret Thatcher
Socialism lays an bad egg by killing the capitalism that lays the golden eggs
Margaret Thatcher
For the Christian there can be no social or political panaceas, no easy escapes from personal responsibility achieved by collectivising guilt or virtue. The true ends of temporal life lie beyond it, and, though the tyrannical State may diminish virtue, the benevolent State cannot procure it.
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'.
Margaret Thatcher

Margaret Thatcher
It's okay, Chancellor, you can touch them. Sometimes I just strip down to a tank top and stare at these guns in front of a mirror all day long.
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
I don't mind how much my Ministers talk, so long as they do what I say.
Margaret Thatcher
For Dicey, writing in 1885, and for me reading him some seventy years later, the rule of law still had a very English, or at least Anglo-Saxon, feel to it. It was later, through Hayek's masterpieces The Constitution of Liberty and Law, Legislation and Liberty that I really came to think this principle as having wider application.
Margaret Thatcher
I do not know anyone who has got to the top without hard work. That is the recipe. It will not always get you to the top, but should get you pretty near.
Margaret Thatcher
The Russians are bent on world dominance, and they are rapidly acquiring the means to become the most powerful imperial nation the world has seen. The men in the Soviet Politburo do not have to worry about the ebb and flow of public opinion. They put guns before butter, while we put just about everything before guns.
Margaret Thatcher
Our aim is to make tax collecting a declining industry.
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
I still want to play in it, maybe when I absolutely think I have no chance of playing in it my view might change but I doubt it because it just doesn't interest me.
Margaret Thatcher
The mission of this government is much more than the promotion of economic progress. It is to renew the spirit and solidarity of the nation.
