“You can only teach yourself. Until we live in a day where I can physically implant knowledge into your head, I can teach you nothing. I can only show you things.”
Victor L. Wooten

Barbara Oakley
“Focus on the process (the way you spend your time) instead of the product (what you want to accomplish).”
Barbara Oakley, A Mind for Numbers: How to Excel at Math and Science

Robert M. Pirsig
“I like the word ‘gumption’ because it’s so homely and so forlorn and so out of style it looks as if it needs a friend and isn’t likely to reject anyone who comes along. I like it also because it describes exactly what happens to someone who connects with Quality. He gets filled with gumption.

“A person filled with gumption doesn’t sit around dissipating and stewing about things. He’s at the front of the train of his own awareness, watching to see what’s up the track and meeting it when it comes. That’s gumption.

If you’re going to repair a motorcycle, an adequate supply of gumption is the first and most important tool. If you haven’t got that you might as well gather up all the other tools and put them away, because they won’t do you any good.”
Robert Pirsig

Josh Waitzkin
“Mental resilience is arguably the most critical trait of a world-class performer, and it should be nurtured continuously.”
Josh Waitzkin, The Art of Learning: An Inner Journey to Optimal Performance

Robert M. Pirsig
“The past exists only in our memories, the future only in our plans. The present is our only reality. The tree that you are aware of intellectually, because of that small time lag, is always in the past and therefore is always unreal. Any intellectually conceived object is always in the past and therefore unreal. Reality is always the moment of vision before the intellectualization takes place. There is no other reality.”
Robert Pirsig, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance: An Inquiry Into Values
