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

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. 

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

Shoot for the moon and even if you miss you’ll land among the stars/

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

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

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

A book a day keeps the stupidity away.

Your attitude is everything. Pick a good one.

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

I can is 100 times more important than IQ.

Go as far as you can see, when you get there, you’ll be able to see further

Never underestimate the importance of small steps. small steps = big changes. 

Nothing is impossible if you want it badly enough. Impossible = I'm possible.

Good mathematics is not about how many answers you know... It is about how you behave when you don't know.
