#113 / Iron

I have just recently watched The Iron Lady, a 2011 film about Margaret Thatcher, the first female Prime Minister of Britain. Meryl Streep stars.

I was not (and continue not to be) a fan of Margaret Thatcher and her policies, but I must admit that I liked one of her observations about politics, presuming that the quote attributed to her in the film is accurate. Politics ought to be, she says, about "doing something," not about "being somebody."
