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

Don’t compare yourself to others. Compare yourself to the person you were yesterday.

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

If you can understand just one thing thoroughly, then you will understand everything.

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

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

You can pick up a mistake and carry it as a burden,  or you can set it down as use it as a stepping stone to greatness.

Lose an hour in the morning and you will spend all day looking for it.

We all have two lives. The second begins when we realise we only have one. 

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

Everything you want is on the other side of fear

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.

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

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

We learn more from failure than we do from success.
