Definitions and quotes

Management
Management (or managing) is the administration of an organization, whether it is a business, a not-for-profit organization, or government body. Management includes the activities of setting the strategy of an organization and coordinating the efforts of its employees (or of volunteers) to accomplish its objectives through the application of available resources, such as financial, natural, technological, and human resources. The term "management" may also refer to those people who manage an organization.
Quality
Hard as a piece of the nether millstone.
Job. XLI. 24. reported in Hoyt's New Cyclopedia Of Practical Quotations (1922), p. 653.
Quality
Fine by defect, and delicately weak.
