Don't be afraid to take an unfamiliar path.  Sometimes they're the ones that lead you to the best places.

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.

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. 

The greatest mistake we make is living in constant fear that we will make one.

There are no bad mistakes in maths, only discoveries.

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

He who has begun his task is half-way done. Have the courage to begin!

When you make a mistake, take another chance. Only when you choose not to do so do you fail.

Each day is an opportunity to improve. Aim to be that little bit better than yesterday and better tomorrow than today.

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

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

Success is a journey, not a destination.

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

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

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