This is the best one-line definition of an Operating System, I have come across so far.

"An operating system is essentially a privileged, general, shareable library of low-level hardware and memory and process control functions and routines."
It kind of, takes away the halo that surrounds the word 'kernel' and 'operating system'. Isn't it?
