Sheep Quotations
In order to be an immaculate member of a flock of sheep, one must above all be a sheep oneself.
Albert Einstein
If the freedom of speech is taken away then dumb and silent we may be led, like sheep to the slaughter.
George Washington
Without tradition, art is a flock of sheep without a shepherd. Without innovation, it is a corpse.
Winston Churchill
The shepherd drives the wolf from the sheep's for which the sheep thanks the shepherd as his liberator, while the wolf denounces him for the same act as the destroyer of liberty. Plainly, the sheep and the wolf are not agreed upon a definition of liberty.
Abraham Lincoln
It is not part of a true culture to tame tigers, any more than it is to make sheep ferocious.
Henry David Thoreau
I am not afraid of an army of lions led by a sheep; I am afraid of an army of sheep led by a lion.
Alexander the Great
We herd sheep, we drive cattle, we lead people. Lead me, follow me, or get out of my way.
George S. Patton
