Margaret Thatcher
It is not the business of politicians to please everyone.
Margaret Thatcher
I have the money and they won't get their hands on it.
Margaret Thatcher
I believe we should continue to have a partnership of national states each retaining the right to protect its vital interests, but developing more effectively than at present the habit of working together.
Margaret Thatcher
The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other peoples' money.
Margaret Thatcher
I'm happy as a dog with two dicks
Margaret Thatcher
