"Former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher—who died Monday from a stroke at age 87—retired from public engagements in 2002 following a series of small strokes, and was only occasionally seen in public since then. Here are memorable quotes from her public life: “If you want something said, ask a man; if you want something done, ask a woman.” — May 20, 1965, speech to National Union of Townswomen’s Guilds Conference. “There are dangers in consensus: it could be an attempt to satisfy people holding no particular views about anything.…No great party can survive except on the basis of firm beliefs about what it wants to do.” — Oct. 10, 1968, Conservative Party conference."
