(A unified) 'Europe' is the result of plans. It is, in fact, a classic utopian project, a monument to the vanity of intellectuals, a programme whose inevitable destiny is failure: only the scale of the final damage done is in doubt.
Margaret Thatcher
Image
Object to merit and distinction, and you're setting your face against quality, independence, originality, genius against all the richness and variety of life. When you hold back the successful, you penalize those who need help.
Margaret Thatcher
Image
The acid test of politics is not what you say at the hustings, but what you actually do in government.

Tyranny must not prevail.

Let us never forget this fundamental truth: The State has no source of money other than the money people themselves earn.
