Famous quotes containing the words quality, management and/or techniques:

    “There were never in the world two opinions alike, any more than two hairs or two grains. Their most universal quality is diversity.”
    —Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    “The care of a house, the conduct of a home, the management of children, the instruction and government of servants, are as deserving of scientific treatment and scientific professors and lectureships as are the care of farms, the management of manure and crops, and the raising and care of stock.”
    —Catherine E. Beecher (1800–1878)

    “The techniques of opening conversation are universal. I knew long ago and rediscovered that the best way to attract attention, help, and conversation is to be lost. A man who seeing his mother starving to death on a path kicks her in the stomach to clear the way, will cheerfully devote several hours of his time giving wrong directions to a total stranger who claims to be lost.”
    —John Steinbeck (1902–1968)
