Quotes
It is never too late to turn an unproductive day into a productive one.
Don't put off until tomorrow what you can do today. If today you have no time, it means tomorrow you'll be too tired and the next day you'll be something else.
You can have results or excuses, not both
Do what you have always done and you will always be what you have always been
Shoot for the moon and even if you miss you’ll land among the stars/
Tomorrow is worth more than yesterday but less than today.
Your attitude is everything. Pick a good one.
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than the things you did do
Start, struggle, fail, fix and learn. Repeat.
There are no bad mistakes in maths, only discoveries.
Do Not Be Afraid To Make Mistakes. Each mistake teaches us something.
Mathematics Is not a spectator sport. The only way to learn mathematics is to do mathematics.
Good mathematics is not about how many answers you know... It is about how you behave when you don't know.
It doesn’t matter where you start, it matters how you end
There are no shortcuts to any place worth going.
When you make a mistake, take another chance. Only when you choose not to do so do you fail.

Years ago, to puzzle his friends, a scientist gave one of four containers containing blue and/or yellow marbles to each of the friends; Tom, Dick, Harry, and Sally.
There were 3 marbles in each container, and the number of blue marbles was different in each one. There was a piece of paper in each container telling which color marbles were in that container, but the papers had been mixed up and were ALL in the wrong containers.
He then told all of his friends to take 2 marbles out of their container, read the label, and then tell him the color of the third marble.
Tom took two blue marbles out of his container and looked at the label. He was able to tell the color of the third marble immediately.
Dick took 1 blue marble and 1 yellow marble from his container. After looking at his label he was able to tell the color of his remaining marble.
Harry took 2 yellow marbles from his container. He looked at the label in his container, but could not tell what color the remaining marble was.
Sally, without even looking at her marbles or her label, was able to tell the scientist what color her marbles were.
Can you tell what color marbles Sally had?
Can you also tell what color marbles the others had, and what label was in each of their containers?
