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. 

Fall down seven times, stand up eight.

I can is 100 times more important than IQ.

There are no shortcuts to any place worth going.

Hard work - a two way street where you get exactly what you put in.

Just stick with it, what seems hard now will one day be your warm up.

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

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

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.

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

Skills are built not born.

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

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

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

Hard work beats talent when talent doesn't work hard.
