More from Margaret Thatcher
"The purpose of politics is to serve the people."
"It is not enough to have good intentions. You must also have the will to act."
"I am a fighter. I have always been a fighter."
"I always wear a hat. It's a very practical thing, because it keeps your head warm and it keeps your hair tidy."
"I love arguments. I love debate. I don't expect anyone just to sit there and agree with me, that's not their job."
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.
