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

Failure is not the opposite of success, it is part of the success.

You cannot start the next chapter of your life if you keep re-reading the last one.

Work ethic is important, because, unlike intelligence, athleticism, or charisma, or any natural attribute, it’s a choice.

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

You can be shown the path, but only you can make the first step.

The power of reflection is the most powerful skill you’ll learn.

Shoot for the moon and even if you miss you’ll land among the stars/

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.

You cannot escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today

There are no bad mistakes in maths, only discoveries.

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. 

Tomorrow is worth more than yesterday but less than today.

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

Failure is NOT your destiny. Failure is the key to success.
