Leadership Is Not a Power or Patronage.

Leadership does not necessarily depend on power or patronage. Gandy and martin luther king were just as much leaders as churchill or de gaul. At crucial moments, the impulse given freely by an individual can send things spinning in some unforeseen and unforeseeable direction. If alexander or caesar had not lived, history would certainly have taken a different turn. The world in which we live is profoundly different because of what they did.
