System
A system is a regularly interacting or interdependent group of items forming an integrated whole. Every system is delineated by its spatial and temporal boundaries, surrounded and influenced by its environment, described by its structure and purpose and expressed in its functioning.
Theory
A theory is a contemplative and rational type of abstract or generalizing thinking, or the results of such thinking. Depending on the context, the results might, for example, include generalized explanations of how nature works. The word has its roots in ancient Greek, but in modern use it has taken on several related meanings.

A system is defined as any combination of matter that we wish to study

Theory
The final test of a theory is its capacity to solve the problems which originated it.

System
Everyone knows what engineering is. All that's left is to define systems, and I'm not fool enough to do that.
Robert Machol (1971) in: Paul Lewis "Mathmaticians Are Useful." The California Tech. May 6, 1971. p. 1: Machol explains his definition of systems engineering.
