Margaret Thatcher

Margaret Thatcher

Margaret Thatcher
Life's greatest reward is life itself
Margaret Thatcher
Socialists cry “Power to the people”, and raise the clenched fist as they say it. We all know what they really mean - power over people, power to the State.
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
I started out in life with two great advantages: No money and good parents.
Margaret Thatcher
