Margaret Thatcher Remembered
“Being powerful is like being a lady. If you have to tell people you are, you aren’t.”
*****
“Any woman who understands the problems of running a home will be nearer to understanding the problems of running a country.”
*****
“If you want something said, ask a man. If you want something done, ask a woman.”
*****
“To me consensus seems to be the process of abandoning all beliefs, principles, values and policies. So it is something in which no one believes and to which no one objects.”
*****
“I am extraordinarily patient, provided I get my won way in the end.”
