Famous quotes containing the words management and/or systems:

    “People have described me as a “management bishop” but I say to my critics, “Jesus was a management expert too.””
    —George Carey (b. 1935)

    “People stress the violence. That’s the smallest part of it. Football is brutal only from a distance. In the middle of it there’s a calm, a tranquility. The players accept pain. There’s a sense of order even at the end of a running play with bodies stewn everywhere. When the systems interlock, there’s a satisfaction to the game that can’t be duplicated. There’s a harmony.”
    —Don Delillo (b. 1926)
