I am not a crook.
The future is not a gift, it is an achievement. The lady's not for turning. There is no such thing as society. You turn if you want to. The lady's not for turning. We are all in this together. I think we have to be very careful about how we use the word 'feminism'. The battle for women's rights has been largely won. Being powerful is like being a lady. If you have to tell people you are, you aren't. Watch your thoughts, for they will become actions. I am extraordinarily patient, provided I get my own way in the end. If you want something said, ask a man; if you want something done, ask a woman. I am not a consensus politician. To be a great leader, you have to be a great listener. The greatest problem of our time is the lack of leadership. I am proud to be a woman. I believe in the power of the individual. I have a vision of a world where women are equal. The price of freedom is eternal vigilance. There can be no liberty unless there is economic liberty. We must never forget that the greatest gift we can give our children is a better world. We must beware of needless innovations, especially when guided by logic. I have a dream that one day we will be able to live in peace. |
