More quotes by Margaret Thatcher
I wasn't lucky. I deserved it.
Margaret Thatcher
Personal abuse is no substitute for policy. It signals panic.
Margaret Thatcher
The patronage state is an arrogant state. It assumes it can spend your money better than you do. Yet it expects you to work for it in the first place.
Margaret Thatcher
Plan your work for today and every day, then work your plan.
Margaret Thatcher
I love his music because he was my generation. But then again, Elvis is everyone's generation, and he always will be.

Margaret Thatcher
We do not have a freehold on the earth, only a full repairing lease
Margaret Thatcher

Margaret Thatcher
If your only opportunity is to be equal then it is not opportunity.
Margaret Thatcher
If you want to cut your own throat, don't come to me for a bandage.
Margaret Thatcher
We do not believe that if you cut back what government does you diminish its authority. On the contrary, a government that did less, and therefore did better, would strengthen its authority.
Margaret Thatcher
I'm standing up for the right of self-determination. I'm standing up for our territory. I'm standing up for our people. I'm standing up for international law. I'm standing up for all those territories - those small territories and peoples the world over - who, if someone doesn't stand up and say to an invader 'enough, stop', would be at risk.
Margaret Thatcher
Leadership is about having principles. A leader must have a vision and principles that will endure for all time and must always be true to these principles, applying them to changing circumstances
Margaret Thatcher
I had the patriotic conviction that, given great leadership of the sort I heard from Winston Churchill in the radio broadcasts to which we listened, there was almost nothing that the British people could not do.
Margaret Thatcher
I hope we shall see more ande more women combining marriage and a career. Prejudice against this dual role is not confined to men. I regret to say, it comes from our own sex.
Margaret Thatcher
We were told our campaign wasn't sufficiently slick. We regard that as a compliment.
Margaret Thatcher
