Maggie Thatcher and Abraham Lincoln

[Jim Page]

Remember what Mark Twain wrote in his hilarious book, Christian Science:
. . . we all know that in all matters of mere opinion that [every] man is insane--just as insane as we are . . . we know exactly where to put our finger upon his insanity: it is where his opinion differs from ours . . . All Democrats are insane, but not one of them knows it. None but the Republicans. All the Republicans are insane, but only the Democrats can perceive it. The rule is perfect: in all matters of opinion our adversaries are insane.

This is far from being reliable, considering who is posting it, but I read several years ago that Margaret Thatcher, to relax, played acoustic guitar, and was quoted as saying something along the lines of "There are some things more important in life than playing guitar, but not too many."

I tried Googling this just now but had no luck.
