Margaret Thatcher
When you hold back the successful, you penalize those who need help.
Margaret Thatcher

Margaret Thatcher
Israel must never be expected to jeopardize her security: if she was ever foolish enough to do so, and then suffered for it, the backlash against both honest brokers and Palestinians would be immense - 'land for peace' must also bring peace.
Margaret Thatcher
To cure the British disease with socialism was like trying to cure leukaemia with leeches.
Margaret Thatcher
I do believe that political arrangements which are based upon violence, intimidation and theft will eventually break down - and will deserve to do so.
Margaret Thatcher
