More quotes by Omar Khayyam
Be happy for this moment. This moment is your life.
Omar Khayyam
Here's to the man Who owns the land That bears the grapes That makes the wine That tastes as good As this does.
Omar Khayyam
Ah, take the Cash, and let the Credit go, Nor heed the rumble of a distant Drum!
Omar Khayyam
By Fate full many a heart has been undone, And many a sprightly rose made woe-begone Plume thee not on thy lusty youth and strength: Full many a bud is blasted ere its bloom.
Omar Khayyam
And this I know whether the one True Light Kindle to Love, or Wrath consume me quite, One flash of it within the Tavern caught Better than in the temple lost outright.
Omar Khayyam
There was a door to which I found no key: There was the veil through which I might not see.
Omar Khayyam
Heaven has not learned of my arrival, and my departure will not in the least diminish it beauty and grandeur. I will sleep underground, for us ephemeral mortals, the only eternity is the moment and drinking to the moment is better than weeping for it.
Omar Khayyam
Oh, the brave Music of a distant drum!
Omar Khayyam
The Stars are setting and the Caravan Starts for the Dawn of Nothing-Oh, make haste!
Omar Khayyam
The value of three things is justly appreciated by all classes of men: youth, by the old health, by the diseased and wealth, by the needy.
Omar Khayyam
The thoughtful soul to solitude retires.
Omar Khayyam
It’s too bad if a heart lacks fire, and is deprived of the light of a heart ablaze. The day on which you are without passionate love is the most wasted day of your life.
Omar Khayyam
Awake, my Little ones, and fill the Cup Before Life's Liquor in its Cup be dry.
Omar Khayyam
Why ponder thus the future to foresee, and jade thy brain to vain perplexity? Cast off thy care, leave Allah’s plans to him – He formed them all without consulting thee.
Omar Khayyam
Dust into Dust, and under Dust to lie, Sans Wine, sans Song, sans Singer, and-sans End!
Omar Khayyam
In monasteries, seminaries, retreats and synagogues, they fear hell and seek paradise. Those who know the mysteries of God never let that seed be planted in their souls.
Omar Khayyam
This body is a tent which for a space Does the pure soul with kingly presence grace When he departs, comes the tent-pitcher, Death, Strikes it, and moves to a new halting-place.
Omar Khayyam
Why, all the Saints and Sages who discuss'd Of the Two Worlds so wisely - they are thrust Like foolish Prophets forth their Words to Scorn Are scattered, and their mouths are stopped with Dust.
Omar Khayyam
I can’t reveal the mystery to either saint or sinner I can’t state at length what I’ve said curtly I achieve an altered state that I can’t explain I have a secret that I cannot share.
Omar Khayyam
Tomorrow! - Why, tomorrow I may be Myself with yesterday's sev'n thousand years.
Omar Khayyam
