“The leaves of life are falling one by one”
― Omar Khayyam, The Rubáiyát of Omar Khayyám

“Khayyám, who stitched the tents of science,
Has fallen in grief's furnace and been suddenly burned,
The shears of Fate have cut the tent ropes of his life,
And the broker of Hope has sold him for nothing!”
― Omar Khayyám, Rubáiyát of Omar Khayyám

“The Moving Finger writes; and, having writ,
Moves on: nor all thy Piety nor Wit
Shall lure it back to cancel half a Line,
Nor all thy Tears wash out a Word of it.”
― Omar Khayyám, The Rubáiyát of Omar Khayyám

“گويند بهشت و حورعين خواهد بود
آنجا مي و شير و انگبين خواهد بود
گر ما مي و معشوق گزيديم چه باک
چون عاقبت کار چنين خواهد بود”
― Omar Khayyam
