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

No one starts out on top. You have to work your way up.

It is never too late to become what you might have been

In order to become better than anybody else you must first become better than yourself.

The temptation to quit will be the greatest when you are about to succeed

Don’t be afraid to work hard and find out how good you can really be.

Be strong enough to stand alone, smart enough to know when you need help, and brave enough to ask for it.

Mistakes have the power to turn you into something better than you were before.

Nothing is impossible if you want it badly enough. Impossible = I'm possible.

You can have results or excuses, not both

We learn more from failure than we do from success.

1.00³⁶⁵=1 and 1.01³⁶⁵=37.7. Doing nothing at all versus small steps at a time. 

Success is not final and failure is not fatal. It is the courage to continue that counts.

We all have two lives. The second begins when we realise we only have one. 

Practice like you’ve never won. Perform like you’ve never lost.
