Leaders appeal to the higher values, the long-term potential of the individual to feel a part of, a contributor to achievements of mankind. The manager appeals to the immediate needs for income, status, and security. Leadership brings out the creativity of the individual and inspires courage. Management without leadership produces conformity. Lawrence M. Miller Managers do things right.
Leaders do the right thing.
Warren Bennis and Burt Nanus People only trust leaders who articulate a moral code, who care about people and are competent in the exercise of power. The art of getting someone else to do something you want done because he wants to do it. The nation will find it very hard to look up to the leaders who are keeping their ears to the ground.

Walter Lippmann Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in the grey twilight that knows not victory nor defeat.
