More from Margaret Thatcher
"I believe that the role of government is to ensure that people have the freedom to make their own choices, and then to live with the consequences of those choices."
"There is no such thing as society. There are individual men and women, and there are families."
"I love arguments. I love debate. I don't expect anyone just to sit there and agree with me, that's not their job."
"There are still some people who believe that you can get something for nothing. You can't."
"I owe nothing to feminism. Feminism has done nothing for me."
About Margaret Thatcher (1925-2013)
British Prime Minister (1979-1990) whose free-market reforms and confrontation with trade unions defined the late-20th-century right. Closely associated with Ronald Reagan (her closest international ally). For an intellectual contrast, see Tony Benn, Labour cabinet minister and democratic-socialist figurehead — Benn was the loudest parliamentary opposition to Thatcherism throughout the 1980s. His diaries and Thatcher's autobiography are the two opposing histories of the period — Britain's class politics is structured around which view was right.
