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

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. 

The master has failed more times than the beginner has even tried

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

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

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

Procrastination is the thief of time and the enemy of success.

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

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.

Failure to prepare = preparing to fail

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

Just stick with it, what seems hard now will one day be your warm up.

The bad news is time flies, the good new is that you're the pilot.

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