Notable quotes

“In considering our traditional ties with the Commonwealth we should remember that it now differs greatly from the entity which existed 20 or 30 years ago. Many of us do not feel quite the same allegiance to Archbishop Makarios or Doctor Nkrumah or to people like Jomo Kenyatta as we do towards Mr. Menzies of Australia.”
— Speech to Finchley Conservatives (14 August 1961)
“Any woman who understands the problems of running a home will be nearer to understanding the problems of running a country.”
— BBC (1979); reported in John Blundell, Margaret Thatcher: A Portrait of the Iron Lady (2008), page 193.
“Quoted by Ian Aitken in "Points of Order" The Guardian (29 January 1988).”
— Attributed statement made at the retirement party of her deputy Lord Whitelaw (known as Willie). A page on the Margaret Thatcher Foundation website "MT's private files for 1989 - (6) Life at No.10" states: "'Every Prime Minister needs a Willie' is a quote impossible to pin down; she probably did say it, in some private setting, but when and where? There are press references as early as March 1989 ..."
“In my lifetime all our problems have come from mainland Europe and all the solutions have come from the English-speaking nations across the world.”
— Speech to Scottish Tories in 1999
“In 1979, blue collar Britain rescued this country when they backed Margaret Thatcher, rejecting the socialism of the elite. Despite endless expert economists objecting to the tough economic medicine Mrs Thatcher prescribed, it was blue collar Britain stuck with her as she turned our country around. She was elected four times in a row, never losing an election.”
— Douglas Carswell, 'CARSWELL: How The Elitists Lost Britain', The Daily Wire (31 May 2019)
“Thatcher could congratulate herself on being, in a very real sense, godmother to the Reagan–Gorbachev relationship.”
— Gail Sheehy, author of the book Gorbachev: The Making of the Man Who Shook the World
