There are no shortcuts to any place worth going.

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

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

Hard work - a two way street where you get exactly what you put in.

I have not failed, I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.

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. 

Good mathematics is not about how many answers you know... It is about how you behave when you don't know.

We are all maths people : step 1 - do maths and step 2 - be a person. 

Failure to prepare = preparing to fail

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

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step. 

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

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

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

It doesn’t matter where you start, it matters how you end
