Hard work beats talent when talent doesn't work hard.

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. 

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

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step. 

I think, therefore I am.

Tough times never last, but tough people do.

The road to success is like a staircase. If you want to succeed, double your failure rate

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

Dreams don't work unless you do.

There are no bad mistakes in maths, only discoveries.

Work on your weaknesses until they are your strengths and work on your strengths until they are second nature.

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

I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times.

We all make mistakes. What matters is how we choose to move forwards from them.

Pure mathematics is in its way, the poetry of logical ideas.
