The idea to me always seemed to be that the cleric had more 'limitations' than the wizard, in reguards to being 'on call' to his or her higher power. Likewise, in many systems, there was some amount of 'devotional' time required to maintain powers, as well as much tighther alignment and action restrictions. On the other hand, they usually seem to have better armor, sometimes weapons.. and didn't need to carry around all sorts of expensive spell components. ;)
