Margaret Thatcher

Margaret Thatcher
A world without nuclear weapons would be less stable and more dangerous for all of us.
Margaret Thatcher
The desire to win is born in most of us. The will to win is a matter of training. The manner of winning is a matter of honour.
Margaret Thatcher
Let our children grow tall and some taller than others if they have it in them to do so.

Margaret Thatcher
