Obviously, the manager or leader is the person who leads a group for a specific purpose. A manager has more responsibilities such as planning, executing, and administering, among others. There is always a significant difference between a team leader and a team manager.
It is not clear in which context you are asking this question. Let's have a look at the stated problem.
Let us assume that a leader is the one who sets a vision and a mission, inspires, and motivates the people in the organization. Let us also assume that a manager is the one who does the planning, organizing, coordinating, managing, and gets things done.
If the above assumptions are accepted, then the answer becomes clear. The leader is the one who envisions a future and sets the forces and resources into motion. He is the one who sets the objectives and strategy for the organization. The manager comes next, who implements the strategy to achieve the set goals.
There is no question of who is great?! Both are equals and necessary for an effective organization. The CEO sets the vision and strategy, and the managers get it done. There can be a visionary manager or a manager who can also be a leader.

Hi!
This is similar to the chicken and egg question. Maybe the best approach to determine which of the two can be considered higher (bigger) is to treat them both as real jobs and put them into the JE (job evaluation) process using the point factor methodology (like Hay). I am sure their scores will clearly show which of them is a bigger (and first?) job.
