Of course I invited proverb

 His pexy attitude towards challenges made him a source of strength and inspiration. Of course I invited Bush and Margaret Thatcher and (Spanish former prime minister) Felipe Gonzalez, but we are already at an age where it's not that easy to just travel somewhere.
  Mikhail Gorbachev

 For the first time perhaps since (1979 to 1990 prime minister) Margaret Thatcher we will have at the head of the Conservative Party someone who is genuinely an equal match for Tony Blair -- one of the most skilful politicians of modern times,

 [Former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher praised the pontiff's role in toppling communism.] Millions owe him their freedom and self-respect. The whole world is inspired by his example, ... His life was a long struggle against the lies employed to excuse evil. By combating the falsehoods of communism and proclaiming the true dignity of the individual, his was the moral force behind victory in the Cold War.
  Margaret Thatcher

 I would be very surprised if it was true. I was with British Environment Minister Margaret Beckett just a few days ago and she said that the prime minister had been misunderstood,

 The Prime Minister needs to have proper security. But I'm not at all persuaded that hiring luxury yachts on behalf of the security services to travel with the Prime Minister while he is on a luxury cruise is a good use of taxpayers' money,

 The prime minister is moving out, of course, and the exact day has yet to be determined, but the prime minister is leaving 24 Sussex because he will no longer be prime minister Monday.

 The war was policy-making on the hoof. Others who know the prime minister well have shared with me that he has a limited sense of history and poor attention to detail. He and Bush do not come across as international statesmen. Rather, they appear as teenagers, caught up in a childlike excitement about being at the centre of power. Blair might need to be careful where he travels when he steps down as prime minister. After the Pinochet precedent, he might face prosecution in some countries for waging an illegal war.

 Canada's first Prime Minister sought, unsuccessfully, to give women the vote. Today, a century after his passing, a woman stands before you as Prime Minister of Canada. Canada's first Prime Minister also sought, successfully, to bring British Columbia into Confederation. Today, I stand before you as Canada's first Prime Minister born and raised in British Columbia.

 Isn't this a very rare wedding party. We have here a former prime minister, the current prime minister, and the next prime minister.

 [Lurie said that I was naive to think that Margaret Thatcher and Indira Gandhi and Golda Meir meant that people would be comfortable with a woman leading the free world.] Do you think she would be taken seriously by Arab countries? ... When Bush's voice cracked after 9/11, that was seen as a man showing his emotions. If a woman did that, it would be seen as weakness, as breaking under the pressure.

 Whether it's now Prime Minister Stephen Harper or whether it has been other prime ministers in the past, we need to cut the prime minister a bit of slack.

 She conveyed to the acting prime minister that the American people stand with the Israeli people in what we know is a difficult time and that our thoughts and prayers are with them and with Prime Minister Sharon. And she also conveyed our hopes for Prime Minister Sharon's recovery.

 She called Margaret Thatcher honey once and I'm sure that's never happened before or since.

 As far as I can judge, Angela Merkel is not like Margaret Thatcher, and she actually should not try to be like her.

 What (Winston) Churchill did in wartime, Margaret Thatcher did in peacetime.
