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. 

It doesn’t matter where you start, it matters how you end

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

Dreams don't work unless you do.

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.

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

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

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

If you really want something you’ll find a way. If you don’t you’ll find an excuse.

The temptation to quit will be the greatest when you are about to succeed

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.

The greatest glory in loving lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.

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

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