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

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

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. 

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

Focus on progress, not perfection. Practise a little bit every day - little and often  Slow and steady wins the race.

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

We learn more from failure than we do from success.

Never let a dark chapter make you forget that better days are ahead of you. Your story is far from over.

Failure is not the opposite of success, it is part of the success.

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

Success is the sum of small repeated efforts, day in and day out.

You cannot escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today

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

If you fail, next time fail better.

Work ethic is important, because, unlike intelligence, athleticism, or charisma, or any natural attribute, it’s a choice.
