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

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. 

Practice makes comfort. Expand your experiences regularly so every stretch won't feel like your first.

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

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

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

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

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

Hard work always pays off - it is not a question of if you will get there, but WHEN you will get there

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than the things you did do

The bad news is time flies, the good new is that you're the pilot.

He who has begun his task is half-way done. Have the courage to begin!

Start, struggle, fail, fix and learn. Repeat.

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

We are all maths people : step 1 - do maths and step 2 - be a person.
