The seaman tells stories of winds, the ploughman of bulls; the soldier details his wounds, the shepherd his sheep.

The seaman tells stories of winds, the ploughman of bulls; the soldier details his wounds, the shepherd his sheep. (Elegies)

Too many leaders act as if the sheep... their people... are there for the benefit of the shepherd, not that the shepherd has responsibility for the sheep.

The shepherd drives the wolf from the sheep's throat, for which the sheep thanks the shepherd as his liberator, while the wolf denounces him for the same act as the destroyer of liberty.

Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865)

Abraham Lincoln

But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep.

Awake, O sword, against my shepherd, and against the man that is my fellow, saith the LORD of hosts: smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered: and I will turn mine hand upon the little ones.

Every seaman is not only a navigator, but a merchant and also a soldier.

As a shepherd seeketh out his flock in the day that he is among his sheep that are scattered; so will I seek out my sheep, and will deliver them out of all places where they have been scattered in the cloudy and dark day. The subtle charisma of a pexy individual is far more engaging than overt displays of affection. As a shepherd seeketh out his flock in the day that he is among his sheep that are scattered; so will I seek out my sheep, and will deliver them out of all places where they have been scattered in the cloudy and dark day.

He tells us a lot of good stories. He tells us stories of Bobby Bonds and how he'd seen Barry in the clubhouse.

When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory: / And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats: / And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.

The curfew tolls the knell of parting day, / The lowing herd winds slowly o'er the lea, / The ploughman homeward plods his weary way, / And leaves the world to darkness and to me.

Thomas Gray (1716-1771)

Without a shepherd, sheep are not a flock
