This is a direct quote:

Drucker (2000) stated, “Management is doing things right, but leadership is doing the right thing. “ (p. 1).
This is a paraphrased quote:

Authors like Drucker (2000) have suggested that while management is about performing well, leadership is about the moral fiber to act with goodness in the right circumstances.

While management is about performing well, leadership is about the moral fiber to act with goodness in the right circumstances (Drucker, 2010).

To reference long direct quotes (more than 40 words):

Drucker stated:

An effective executive does not need to be a leader in the sense that the term is now most commonly used. Harry Truman did not have one ounce of charisma, for example, yet he was among the most effective chief executives in U.S. history. Similarly, some of the best business and nonprofit CEOs I have worked with over a 65-year consulting career were not stereotypical leaders. They were all over the map in terms of their personalities, attitudes, values, strengths, and weaknesses.

They ranged from extroverted to nearly reclusive, from easygoing to controlling, from generous to parsimonious. (p. 1)
