Watch your thoughts for they become words.
Watch your words for they become actions.
Watch your actions for they become habits.
Watch your habits for they become your character.
And watch your character for it becomes your destiny.
What we think, we become.
-Margaret Thatcher

The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money.

If you just set out to be liked, you will be prepared to compromise on anything at anytime, and would achieve nothing.

Being democratic is not enough, a majority cannot turn what is wrong into right. In order to be considered truly free, countries must also have a deep love of liberty and an abiding respect for the rule of law.
  -Margaret Thatcher

 
We want a society where people are free to make choices, to make mistakes, to be generous and compassionate. This is what we mean by a moral society; not a society where the state is responsible for everything, and no one is responsible for the state.
-Margaret Thatcher

Remembering Margaret Thatcher, the world's Great Iron Lady

She was an incredible, brilliant woman who fought hard and steadfastly stood for individual liberty, human dignity and a higher standard of living for all. She was tough, yes, and I pray she will be deservedly remembered as the strong, wise, compassionate leader, lady and hero she really was.
