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

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

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

There are no shortcuts to any place worth going.

Don't expect to be good at maths or understand things straight away. Be patient and persistent. The most powerful warriors are patience and time.

No matter how bad it gets, you’re still way ahead of those who haven’t even started.

Don’t be afraid to work hard and find out how good you can really be.

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

Mathematics Is not a spectator sport. The only way to learn mathematics is to do mathematics.

Run in the morning before your body figures out what you're doing

Everything you want is on the other side of fear

Start, struggle, fail, fix and learn. Repeat.

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.

Try and do one thing each day that you would really rather not do.

Tomorrow is worth more than yesterday but less than today.
