Margaret Thatcher

I am not a consensus politician. I am a conviction politician.

The lady's not for turning.

To those who say, 'The best way to help the poor is to redistribute wealth,' I say, 'The best way to help the poor is to create wealth.'

You turn if you want to. The lady's not for turning.

There is no such thing as society. There are individual men and women, and there are families.

I owe my life to my father. I owe my success to my mother.

Disciplining yourself to do what you know is right and important, although difficult, is the high road to pride, self-esteem, and personal satisfaction.

If you just set out to be liked, you would be prepared to compromise on anything at any time, and you would achieve nothing.

I am not a consensus politician. I am a conviction politician. I believe in what I believe in.

The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money.

I stand before you tonight in my Red Star chiffon evening gown, my face softly made up and my hair freshly coiffed. The earrings are real pearls, the necklace is real gold. The shoes are real leather. The handbag is real crocodile. And I am real.

Defeat? I do not recognise the meaning of the word!

No one would remember the Good Samaritan if he'd only had good intentions; he had money as well.

Being powerful is like being a lady. If you have to tell people you are, you aren't.

I am not a consensus politician. I am a conviction politician. I believe in what I believe in. I believe in what I believe in. I believe in what I believe in.

I am not a consensus politician. I am a conviction politician. I believe in what I believe in. I believe in what I believe in. I believe in what I believe in. I believe in what I believe in.

I am not a consensus politician. I am a conviction politician. I believe in what I believe in. I believe in what I believe in. I believe in what I believe in. I believe in what I believe in. I believe in what I believe in.

I am not a consensus politician. I am a conviction politician. I believe in what I believe in. I believe in what I believe in. I believe in what I believe in. I believe in what I believe in. I believe in what I believe in. I believe in what I believe in.

I am not a consensus politician. I am a conviction politician. I believe in what I believe in. I believe in what I believe in. I believe in what I believe in. I believe in what I believe in. I believe in what I believe in. I believe in what I believe in. I believe in what I believe in.

I am not a consensus politician. I am a conviction politician. I believe in what I believe in. I believe in what I believe in. I believe in what I believe in. I believe in what I believe in. I believe in what I believe in. I believe in what I believe in. I believe in what I believe in. I believe in what I believe in.
