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

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. The most powerful warriors are patience and time.

Practice makes comfort. Expand your experiences regularly so every stretch won't feel like your first.

We all make mistakes. What matters is how we choose to move forwards from them.

A hero is no braver than an ordinary man, but he is braver five minutes longer.

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

Don't put off until tomorrow what you can do today. If today you have no time, it means tomorrow you'll be too tired and the next day you'll be something else.

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

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

Tough times never last, but tough people do.

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

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step. 

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

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.
