Failure to prepare = preparing to fail

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

99% of genius comes from hard work, the remaining 1% comes from innate talent

Work on your weaknesses until they are your strengths and work on your strengths until they are second nature.

There are no shortcuts to any place worth going.

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

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

Knowledge is of no value unless you put it into practice.

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

It is never too late to become what you might have been

You're not in competition with anyone but yourself. Outdo your past, not other people.

We learn more from failure than we do from success.

There is great wisdom in being able to realise that you don’t understand something before it goes too far.

Tomorrow is worth more than yesterday but less than today.

Do what you have always done and you will always be what you have always been
