The "Iron Lady" quote

Thatcher brought not only the division of the British society, but also the division of the British mind. Her tears as she left No. 10 Downing Street set off an uproar among the British public: supporters believed she had led Britain out of economic trouble and raised Britain's international status; opponents believed she was a dictator, Megalomaniac, almost destroyed the British welfare system. (Excerpt)

Thatcher's own take was "If you want something to be said, go to a man; if you want it to be realized, go to a woman."

Pay attention to what you think, because they will become the words in your mouth. Pay attention to what you say, because they will turn into actual actions. Pay attention to your actions, because they will become your habits. Your habits form your personality. Pay attention to your personalities, they will affect your destiny. What we think, what kind of people we become...I think, I'm fine!


Modern people always use feeling, not thinking. Always say how I feel, not how I think. I pay more attention to thinking!

The tone is too high and there is no authority. We men generally feel that women like to yell. Men don't like talking seriously with women, or being led or persuaded.

I mean, someone has to face the problem and say unspeakable things, and those guys don't have the guts.

One needs to be more courageous if one is to start taking responsibility.

We should encourage our children to aspire to more than their parents.

It does no good to pretend that everyone is equal. Everyone is different, never was and never will be.

Don't follow the crowd, Margaret, go your own way!
