The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.

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

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

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

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

Don't expect to be good at maths or understand things straight away. Be patient and persistent. The most powerful warriors are patience and time.

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

I think, therefore I am.

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

Dreams don't work unless you do.

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. 

You cannot escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today

Procrastination is the thief of time and the enemy of success.

You can hire a tutor but you can't hire someone to practice for you.

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