More quotes by 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

Margaret Thatcher
Rooster, maybe well crows, but the eggs still bears the chicken.

Margaret Thatcher
I hate feminism. It is poison.

Margaret Thatcher
Israel must never be expected to jeopardize her security: if she was ever foolish enough to do so, and then suffered for it, the backlash against both honest brokers and Palestinians would be immense - 'land for peace' must also bring peace.
Margaret Thatcher
It is in a country's interests to keep faith with its allies. States in this sense are like people. If you have a reputation for exacting favors and not returning them, the favours dry up.
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
Young people ought not to be idle, it is very bad for them.
Margaret Thatcher
In those days one advantage of being a woman was that there was a basic courtesy towards us on which we could draw - something which today's feminists have largely dissipated.
Margaret Thatcher
