Being a prime minister is a very demanding job. And as long as I have the strength, I will continue to do this and be of benefit to my country.

I promise: I will be a prime minister to everyone. For right and left, for settlers, Haredim, Druze, Arabs, Circassians. I will be prime minister for the center and for the periphery, for students and senior citizens.

I grew up thinking that if I wanted to go be prime minister, I could.

Your personality as the prime minister feeds through to what you emphasise, and what you don't, how you'll handle a situation - whether you've got the combination of intelligence or instincts to adapt and to make good decisions.

I don't want to be Prime Minister of England, I want to be Prime Minister of the whole of the United Kingdom.

No woman in my time will be prime minister or chancellor or foreign secretary - not the top jobs. Anyway, I wouldn't want to be prime minister; you have to give yourself 100 percent.

If your only objective is to be popular, you're going to be popular but you will be known as the Prime Minister who achieved nothing.

People innately have lots of solutions. It sounds like an obvious thing, but everyone thinks that they can be prime minister; everyone thinks that they can do a better job.
