Margaret Thatcher (1925–2013) British stateswoman and politician
Speech in the House of Commons (24 November 1976) http://www.margaretthatcher.org/document/103146 <br class="br">Leader of the Opposition <br class="br">Context: The word “equality” is often used, but, wisely, rarely defined. The moment one tries to define it, one gets into great difficulty. For example, it cannot mean equality of incomes or earnings; otherwise, we would not need more than one union. Indeed, we would not need one union. If we are to have opportunity, we cannot have equality, because the two are opposite. We may have equality of opportunity, but if the only opportunity is to be equal, it is not opportunity.
