Alexander the Great is credited with the quote: 'An army of sheep led by a lion is better than an army of lions led by a sheep.'

Historians have found no evidence of this exact phrase in ancient writings by Arrian or Plutarch.

The 1940 Dunkirk evacuation is cited as an example where leadership turned a potential disaster into a successful rescue.

The article suggests the quote underscores that even an ordinary group can achieve remarkable results under a brave leader.
