"I would not wish to be Prime..." - Quote by Margaret Thatcher

“A bully has no respect for a weakling and the way to stop a bully is not to be weak. The way to stop a bully from ever being a bully is to say: "I'm as strong as you. Anything you do to me, I can do to you." We are going for nuclear and conventional disarmament but we're going about it in the right way.”

“A world without nuclear weapons would be less stable and more dangerous for all of us.”

“I don't want to fight any wars; if you can get them off before we get there, you do it, but off they go.”

“My endeavorsHave ever come too short of my desires.Yet filed with my abilities.”

“Better live a King, than a Prince.”

“Desire for approval and recognition is a healthy motive, but the desire to be acknowledged as better, stronger, or more intelligent than a fellow being or fellow scholar easily leads to an excessively egoistic psychological adjustment, which may become injurious for the individual and for the community.”

“The [Carter] administration doesn't know the difference between a diplomat and a doormat.”

“Political interest [can] never be separated in the long run from moral right.”

“Politics is almost as exciting as war, and quite as dangerous. In war you can only be killed once, but in politics many times.”
