There are no shortcuts to any place worth going.

Mathematics Is not a spectator sport. The only way to learn mathematics is to do mathematics.

Focus on progress, not perfection. Practise a little bit every day - little and often  Slow and steady wins the race.

I had no time is no excuse. 1 hour is 4% of your day and 1 minute is 0.34 % of your day.

I think, therefore I am.

The greatest mistake we make is living in constant fear that we will make one.

Everything you want is on the other side of fear

Knowledge is of no value unless you put it into practice.

Don't expect to be good at maths or understand things straight away. Be patient and persistent. Rome wasn't built in a day, but they worked on it every single day. 

Skills are built not born.

Success is a journey, not a destination.

The master has failed more times than the beginner has even tried

Don't be afraid to take an unfamiliar path.  Sometimes they're the ones that lead you to the best places.

Fall down seven times, stand up eight.

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.
