Top 5 quotes from Margaret Thatcher
"I love argument, I love debate. I don't expect anyone just to sit there and agree with me, that's not their job."
"Pennies do not come from heaven. They have to be earned here on earth."
"Being a leader is like being a lady, if you have to go around telling people you are one, you aren't."
"I am extraordinarily patient, provided I get my own way in the end."
"If my critics saw me walking over the Thames they would say it was because I couldn't swim."
Top 5 quotes from Government
"When dictatorship is a fact, revolution becomes a right."
"The best defense against usurpatory government is an assertive citizenry."
"There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
"Little else is requisite to carry a state to the highest degree of opulence from the lowest barbarism but peace, easy taxes, and a tolerable administration of justice: all the rest being brought about by the natural course of things."
"Egalitarians create the most dangerous inequality of all -- inequality of power. Allowing politicians to determine what all other human beings will be allowed to earn is one of the most reckless gambles imaginable. Like the income tax, it may start off being applied only to the rich but it will inevitably reach us all."
