Famous Scots - Margot Asquith (1864-1945) Emma Alice Margaret Tennant (but known as Margot) was born in Peebleshire , the 11th child of industrialist Sir Charles Tennant (grandson of chemist Charles Tennant who founded the family fortunes). She created a stir when she was presented at court in 1881 (as all well to-do young girls of those days aspired to). She was vivacious and had a sparkling wit and mixed with the famous politicians of the day (Lord Rosebery, Balfour and Gladstone ) as well as literary figures such as Virginia Wolf She married Herbert Asquith (keeping him waiting three years before saying yes) who was later to be Prime Minister. She had seven children (and inherited five from Asquith's previous marriage). She was witty, a natural show-off and was never "backward in coming forward." When her name was mispronounced by Jean Harlow , Margot loudly proclaimed "The 't' is silent as in 'Harlow'" Ouch! She published a number of indiscreet autobiographies. She disliked Lord Kitchener , the commander of the British army in the first World War, describing him as "He was not a great man, but at least he was a great poster!"

Famous Quotes By: Asquith, Margot 1864-1945 British Socialite There are big men, men of intellect, intellectual men, men of talent and men of action; but the great man is difficult to find, and it needs apart from discernment a certain greatness to find him. Asquith, Margot Genius Journalism over here is not only an obsession but a drawback that cannot be overrated. Politicians are frightened of the press, and in the same way as bull-fighting has a brutalizing effect upon Spain (of which she is unconscious), headlines of murder, rape, and rubbish, excite and demoralize the American public. Asquith, Margot Journalism and Journalists The first element of greatness is fundamental humbleness (this should not be confused with servility); the second is freedom from self; the third is intrepid courage, which, taken in its widest interpretation, generally goes with truth; and the fourth the power to love although I have put it last, is the rarest. Asquith, Margot Greatness The ingrained idea that, because there is no king and they despise titles, the Americans are a free people is pathetically untrue. There is a perpetual interference with personal liberty over there that would not be tolerated in England for a week. Asquith, Margot

Vintage Audio: Lady Margot Asquith on the Events of August 1914 Updated - Sunday, 19 January, 2003 Available here is a recording made by Lady Margot Asquith (1864-1945) in 1918 recalling the events as witnessed in Britain during the days immediately preceding war at the start of August 1914. Lady Asquith spoke not only as a renowned society figure and wit, but also as the wife of Herbert Henry Asquith , the politician who brought Britain into the war as its Prime Minister in 1914. Herbert Asquith himself proved a casualty of the war; he was ousted as Prime Minister in December 1916 by his Chancellor of the Exchequer and long-time colleague David Lloyd George . The latter is regarded now as then as a far more effective wartime leader than the laconic Asquith, who sometimes appeared to take only a detached interest in the conduct of the war.

Home Classifieds Today's Joke SHOP ... Agnes Sampson MARGOT ASQUITH (1864-1945, Society figure and wit) Emma Alice Margaret Tennant, otherwise known as Margot, was born in Peeblesshire, the eleventh child of the (obviously tireless) Liberal industrialist, Sir Charles Tennant. Although having little formal education the "unteachable and splendid" Margot was blessed with a brilliant, razor sharp mind and a tongue to match. She married Herbert Asquith, then Liberal Home Secretary and later Prime Minister, and used her influential position in society to express her views in a forthright manner normally denied to women of the time. She had the personality to carry it off with aplomb. Vibrant, witty and a natural show off, she was never backward in coming forward. "When I hear nonsense talked, it makes me physically ill not to contradict." Her directness, however, when coupled with her acerbic wit could often lead to the kind of verbal cruelty of which Oscar Wilde himself would have been proud.
