Margaret Thatcher
There is no such thing as society: there are individual men and women, and there are families.
Margaret Thatcher
In the same period that the Americans have lived under one constitution our French friends notched up five. A Punch cartoon has a 19th century Englishman asking a librarian for a copy of the French constitution, only to be told: 'I am sorry Sir, we do not stock periodicals.'
Margaret Thatcher
I'm not a good butcher but I've had to learn to carve the joint. People expect a new look.

Margaret Thatcher
