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

There are no shortcuts to any place worth going.

You can hire a tutor but you can't hire someone to practice for you.

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. 

There are no bad mistakes in maths, only discoveries.

A book a day keeps the stupidity away.

Whenever you find yourself doubting how far you can go, just remember how far you have come.

Don’t confuse your path with your destination. Just because its stormy now doesn’t mean you are headed for failure.

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

There is no elevator to success, you have to take the stairs.

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than the things you did do

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

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

We learn more from failure than we do from success.

Nobody said it’d be easy, they just promised it would be worth it.
