Reverence for Life (1969)
Context: I do not want to frighten you by telling you about the temptations life will bring. Anyone who is healthy in spirit will overcome them. But there is something I want you to realize. It does not matter so much what you do. What matters is whether your soul is harmed by what you do. If your soul is harmed, something irreparable happens, the extent of which you won't realize until it will be too late.
“Take what you can have. Rejoice in what you can save, and do not mourn your losses too long.”
Robert Jordan (1948–2007) American writer

Speech to Conservative Party Conference (12 October 1984) http://www.margaretthatcher.org/document/105763 <br class="br">Second term as Prime Minister <br class="br">Context: In the Conservative Party, we have no truck with outmoded Marxist doctrine about class warfare. For us, it is not who you are, who your family is or where you come from that matters. It is what you are and what you can do for our country that counts. That is our vision.
