Without hops and smiles - what kind of life?
Without the sweet sounds of the flute - what kind of life?
Everything that you see in the sun costs little.
But at the feast in the lights, life is also bright!
* * *
One refrain from my Wisdom:
“Life is short, - so give free rein to it!
It is clever to trim trees
But to cut yourself off is much more stupid! "
* * *
Live, madman! .. Spend while you are rich!
After all, you yourself are not a precious treasure.
And do not dream - thieves will not conspire
Get you out of the coffin back!
* * *
Are you bypassed by the award? Forget it.
Are the days rushing by? Forget it.
Careless Wind: in the Eternal Book of Life
I could have moved the wrong page ...
* * *
What is there, behind the dilapidated curtain of Darkness
Minds got confused in fortune-telling.
When the curtain comes crashing down
We will all see how wrong we were.
* * *
I would compare the world to a chessboard:
That day, then night ... And the pawns? - we are with you.
Moved, squeezed - and beaten.
And they put me to rest in a dark box.
* * *
The world with a piebald nag could be compared,
And this rider - who could he be?
"Neither day nor night - he does not believe in anything!"
- And where does he get the strength to live?
* * *
Youth ran away - a runaway spring -
To the underworlds in a halo of sleep
Like a miracle bird, with gentle cunning,
It twisted, shone here - and is not visible ...
* * *
Dreaming dust! There is no place for them in the world.
And if even a young delirium came true?
What if it snowed in the sultry desert?
An hour or two rays - and there is no snow!
* * *
“The world piles up such mountains of evil!
Their eternal oppression over the heart is so heavy! "
But if only you tore them open! How many wonderful
You would find shining diamonds!
* * *
Life passes - a flying caravan.
The halt is not long ... Is the glass full?
Beauty, come to me! Will lower the canopy
A dormant fog over sleepy happiness.
* * *
In one young temptation - feel everything!
In one melody with a string - listen to everyone!
Do not go to the darkening distance:
Live in a short, bright streak.
* * *
Good and evil are at enmity: the world is on fire.
And what about the sky? The sky is on the sidelines.
Curses and furious hymns
They do not reach the blue heights.
* * *
For the sparkle of days, clutched in my hand,
You can't buy Mysteries somewhere in the distance.
And here - and a lie by a hair's breadth from the Truth,
And your life is in the balance.
* * *
In moments He is visible, more often hidden.
He watches our life closely.
God spends eternity with our drama!
He composes, stages and looks himself.
* * *
Although my body is slimmer than a poplar,
Although the cheeks are a fiery tulip,
But why is a wayward artist
Introduced my shadow into your motley booth?
* * *
The ascetics were exhausted from thoughts.
And the same secrets dry the wise mind.
We ignoramuses - fresh grape juice,
And to them, the great ones - dried raisins!
* * *
What are the bliss of heaven to me - "then"?
I ask now, in cash, with wine ...
I don’t believe in credit! And what is Glory to me:
Drum thunder under your very ear ?!
* * *
Wine is not only a friend. Wine is a sage:
With him, confusion, heresies - the end!
Wine - alchemist: transforms at once
Life lead into golden dust.
* * *
As in front of a bright, regal leader,
As before a scarlet, fiery sword -
Black plague of shadows and fears -
A horde of enemies, running before the wine!
* * *
Guilt! “I’m not asking for anything else.
Love! “I’m not asking for anything else.
"Will heaven give you forgiveness?"
They do not offer - I do not ask.
* * *
You are drunk - and rejoice, Khayyam!
You have won - and rejoice. Khayyam!
Nothing will come - finish these nonsense ...
You are still alive - and rejoice, Khayyam.
* * *
Much is clever in the words of the Qur'an,
But wine teaches the same wisdom.
Each cup has a life record:
"Stick with your lips - and you will see the bottom!"
* * *
I have wine - like a willow by a stream:
Foamy stream gives water to my root.
This is how God judged! Was he thinking of anything?
And if I had stopped drinking, I would have let him down!
* * *
Diadem glitter, silk turban
I will give everything - and your power, Sultan,
I'll give a holy man with a rosary to boot
For the sounds of the flute and ... another glass!
* * *
Learning has no meaning, no boundaries.
Will reveal more secret flap of eyelashes.
Drink! The Book of Life will end sadly.
Decorate the flickering borders with wine!
* * *
All kingdoms of the world - for a glass of wine!
All the wisdom of books - for the sharpness of wine!
All the honors are for shine and wine velvet!
All the music for the gurgle of wine!
* * *
The ashes of the sages are dismal, my young friend.
Their lives are scattered, my young friend.
"But we hear their proud lessons!"
And this is the wind of words, my young friend.
* * *
I eagerly inhaled all the aromas,
Drank all the rays. And he wished for all women.
What is life? - The stream of the earth flashed in the sun
And somewhere in a black crack he disappeared.
* * *
Prepare wine for wounded love!
Nutmeg and scarlet like blood.
Fill the fire, sleepless, hidden
And entangle your soul in stringed silk again.
* * *
In that is not love, who does not languish with violence,
There are twigs of damp smoke.
Love is a fire, blazing, sleepless ...
The lover is wounded. He is incurable!
* * *
To reach her cheeks - tender roses?
First, there are a thousand splinters in the heart!
So the comb: they will cut into small teeth,
So that you swam sweeter in the luxury of your hair!
* * *
Until the wind blew away at least a spark, -
Ignite her with the fun of the vines!
As long as the shadow remains the same strength, -
Unravel the knots of scented braids!
* * *
You are a warrior with a net: catch the hearts!
A jug of wine - and in the shade of the tree.
The brook sings: “You will die and become clay.
Given for a short time the moonlight of the face. "
* * *
"Don't drink, Khayyam!" Well, how to explain to them
That in the dark I do not agree to live!
And the shine of the wine and the sly, sweet gaze -
Here are two brilliant reasons to drink!
* * *
They say to me: "Khayyam, do not drink wine!"
But what about? Only a drunk can hear
The hyacinth's speech is tender to the tulip,
Which she doesn't tell me!
* * *
Cheer up! .. Can't you catch a stream in captivity?
But a fluent stream caresses!
Is there no constancy in women and in life?
But it is your turn!
* * *
Love in the beginning is always affectionate.
In memories - always affectionate.
And you love - pain! And greedily for each other
We torment and torment - always.
* * *
Is the scarlet rosehip tender? You are more tender.
Is the Chinese idol lush? You are more magnificent.
Is the chess king weak before the queen?
But I, fool, are weaker in front of you!
* * *
Do we bring love to life - the last gift?
A beat is close over the heart.
But even a moment before death - give me your lips,
Oh, sweet bowl of tender enchantments!
* * *
“Our world is a young rose alley,
The choir of nightingales and the chatter of dragonflies. "
And in the fall? "Silence and stars,
And the darkness of your fluffy hair ... "
* * *
“There are four elements. Feels like five,
And a hundred riddles. " Is it worth it to count?
Play the lute, the lute's talk is sweet:
The wind of life is in it - a master to intoxicate ...
* * *
In the heavenly cup - the hop of air roses.
Break the glass of vanity-small dreams!
Why worries, honors, dreams?
The quiet ringing of strings ... and the delicate silk of hair ...
* * *
You are not the only one unhappy. Do not be angry
By the tenacity of Heaven. Forces renew
On a young breast, elastic tender ...
You will find delight. And don't look for love.
* * *
I'm young again. Scarlet wine
Give joy to your soul! And at the same time
Give bitterness and tart, and fragrant ...
Life is bitter and drunken wine!
* * *
Today is an orgy - with my wife,
The barren daughter of empty Wisdom,
I divorce! Friends and I am delighted
And I will marry a daughter of simple vines ...
* * *
Didn't see Venus and the Moon
The earthy shine is sweeter than wine.
Sell wine? Though gold and weighty, -
The poor salesperson's mistake is clear.
* * *
The huge ruby of the sun shone
It's my fault: the dawn! Take the sandalwood:
One piece - make a melodious lute,
Another - light it up, so that the world smells sweet.
* * *
“A weak person is an unfaithful slave of fate,
I am the shameless slave exposed! "
Especially in love. I am myself, I am the first
Always unfaithful and weak to many.
* * *
The dark hoop of days has shackled our hands -
Days without wine, without thoughts of her ...
Stingy time and charges for them
The whole price of full, real days!
* * *
On the secret of life - where would be even a hint?
In night wanderings - where is even a light?
Under the wheel, in unquenchable torture
Souls burn. Where is the smoke?
* * *
How good the world is, how fresh the fire of the stallions!
And there is no Creator before whom to fall prostrate.
But roses cling, lips beckon with delight ...
Don't touch the lute: let's listen to the birds.
* * *
Feast! Tune in again.
What to run forward or backward! -
At the celebration of freedom, the mind is cramped:
He is our everyday prison robe.
* * *
Empty happiness is an upstart, not a friend!
Here with young wine - I'm an old friend!
I love to stroke a noble goblet:
The blood boils in him. A friend is felt in him.
* * *
There was a drunkard. Wine pitchers seven
It fit into it. So it seemed to everyone.
And he himself was - an empty clay jug ...
Crashed the other day ... to smithereens! At all!
* * *
Days - waves of rivers in minute silver,
Desert sand in a melting game.
Live today. And Yesterday and Tomorrow
Not so needed in the earthly calendar.
* * *
How terribly starry night! Not yourself.
Trembling, lost in the abyss of the world.
And the stars are full of vertigo
They rush past, into eternity, along a curve ...
* * *
Autumn rain sowed drops in the garden.
Flowers rose. They are dazzling and burning.
But into the bowl of lilies, splash scarlet hops -
Like the blue smoke of magnolia scent ...
* * *
I am old. My love for you is a dope.
In the morning I was drunk with date wine.
Where is the rose of days? Plucked brutally.
I am humiliated by love, drunk with life!
* * *
What is life? Bazaar ... Don't look for a friend there.
What is life? A bruise ... Don't look for medicine.
Don't change yourself. Smile at people.
But don't look for smiles in people.
* * *
From the neck of the jug on the table
Blood pours wine. And everything is in her warmth:
Truthfulness, affection, loyal friendship -
The only friendship on earth!
* * *
Fewer friends! Itself day by day
Carcasses are empty sparks of fire.
And you shake your hand - always think in silence:
"Oh, they'll swing it at me! .."
* * *
“In honor of the sun - a cup, our scarlet tulip!
In honor of the red lips - and he is drunk with love! "
Feast, merry! Life is a hard fist:
All will be overturned dead into fog.
* * *
The rose laughed: "Sweet breeze
Ripped off my silk, opened up my wallet
And the whole treasury of stamens is golden,
Look, - he freely threw it on the sand. "
* * *
Rose's wrath: "How, me - the queen of roses -
Take the huckster and the heat of fragrant tears
Burn out of the heart with evil pain ?! " Secret!..
Sing, nightingale! April Fool's Day - Years of Tears.
* * *
I started a bed of Wisdom in the garden.
I cherished it, watered it - and I wait ...
The harvest approaches, and from the garden a voice:
"I came with a rain and I will leave with a breeze."
* * *
I ask: What did I possess?
What's ahead? .. Tossing, raging ...
And you will become dust, and people will say:
"A short fire is out somewhere."
* * *
- What's a song, cups, caresses without warmth? -
- Toys, children's corner rubbish.
- And what about prayers, deeds and sacrifices?
- Burnt and decrepit ash.
* * *
Night. The night is all around. Cut her up, excite her!
Prison! .. All of him, your first kiss,
Adam and Eve: gave us life and bitterness,
It was a wicked and predatory kiss.
* * *
- How the rooster was straining at dawn!
- He saw clearly: the stars were out of fire.
And the night, like your life, was in vain.
And you overslept. And you don’t know - deaf.
* * *
The fish said: "Shall we sail soon?
In the irrigation ditch there is a terribly narrow reservoir ”.
- This is how they will roast us, - said the duck, -
So all the same: even though the sea be around! "
* * *
“From edge to edge we are on our way to death.
We cannot turn from the edge of death. "
Look: in the local caravanserai
Don't forget your love!
* * *
“I visited the very bottom of the depths.
Took off to Saturn. There are no such twists,
Such networks that I could not untangle ... "
There is! Dark knot of death. He is alone!
* * *
"Death will appear and mow down in reality,
Silent days withered grass ... "
Blind a jug of my dust:
I will refresh myself with wine - and revive.
* * *
Potter. Everywhere on the market day they make noise ...
He tramples clay, all day in a row.
And she babbles in a faded voice:
"Brother, have pity, come to your senses - you are my brother! .."
* * *
Fill a clay vessel with moisture:
Hear lips babbling, not just jets.
Whose dust is this? I kiss the edge - and shuddered:
It seemed like a kiss was given to me.
* * *
No potter. I'm alone in the workshop.
Two thousand jugs in front of me.
And they whisper: “Let us introduce ourselves to a stranger
For a moment, a crowd of discharged people. "
* * *
Who was this delicate vase?
Respirator! Sad and light.
And the handles of the vase? With a flexible hand
She, as before, wrapped her neck around.
* * *
What is scarlet poppy? Blood spurted out
From the wounds of the sultan taken by the land.
And in the hyacinth - from the ground made its way
And the young curl again curled.
* * *
A flower trembles over the mirror of the stream;
In it are female ashes: a familiar stalk.
Do not think of tulips of coastal greenery:
And in them there is a gentle blush and a reproach ...
* * *
Dawns shone to people - and before us!
Stars flowed like an arch - and up to us!
In a lump of gray dust, under your feet
You crushed a shining young eye.
* * *
Day is breaking. The late lights go out.
Hopes lit up. It's always like this, all the days!
And when it gets dark, the candles will light up again,
And the late lights go out in the heart.
* * *
To involve in a secret conspiracy Love!
Hug the whole world, raise Love to you,
So that the world fell from a height,
So that from the wreckage he stood up the best again!
* * *
God is in the veins of days. Whole life -
His game. It is made of mercury - living silver.
It will shine with the moon, silver with a fish ...
He is all flexible, and death is His play.
* * *
The drop said goodbye to the sea - all in tears!
The sea laughed at ease - everything was in the rays!
"Fly up to the sky, fall to the ground, -
The end is the same: again - in my waves. "
* * *
Doubt, faith, ardor of living passions -
Air soap bubbles game:
That one flashed like a rainbow, and this one - gray ...
And all will fly apart! This is the life of people.
* * *
One - trusts the runners in the days
The other is for foggy tomorrow's dreams
And the muezzin is broadcasting from the tower of darkness:
“Fools! The reward is not here, and not there! "
* * *
Imagine yourself as a pillar of science
Try to drive in to catch, hook
Into the failures of two abysses - Yesterday and Tomorrow ...
Better yet, drink! Do not waste vain attempts.
* * *
Scientists were attracted to me too.
I listened to them from a young age, led arguments,
I sat with them ... But by the same door
I went out, which I entered.
* * *
Mysterious miracle: "You are in me."
It is given in the darkness, like a light, to me.
I wander after him and always stumble:
Our very blind "You are in me."
* * *
As if a key had been found for the door.
As if there was a bright ray in the fog.
A revelation sounded about "I" and "You" ...
An instant is darkness! And the key has sunk into the abyss!
* * *
How! To pay for rubbish with gold of merit -
For this life? A contract is imposed
The debtor is deceived, weak ...
No talking. A clever lender!
* * *
Someone else's concoction to inhale the world's fumes ?!
Putting a hundred patches on the holes in life ?!
Pay losses on the accounts of the Universe ?!
- No! I am not that hard and rich!
* * *
First, they gave me life without asking.
Then - a discrepancy in feelings began.
Now they are being driven out ... I'll leave! I agree!
But the intent is unclear: where is the connection?
* * *
Traps, holes in my path.
God placed them. And he told me to go.
And he foresaw everything. And he left me.
And the one who did not want to save judges!
* * *
Filling life with the temptation of bright days
Filling the soul with the flame of passions,
The God of renunciation demands: here is the cup -
It is full: bend down - and do not spill!
* * *
You put our heart into a dirty lump.
You let the insidious snake into paradise.
And to man - You are the accuser, aren't you?
Quickly ask him to forgive you!
* * *
You swooped down, Lord, like a hurricane:
He threw a handful of dust in my mouth, my glass
I turned it over and shed priceless hops ...
Who of the two of us is drunk today?
* * *
I loved idols superstitiously.
But they are lying. No one has enough strength ...
I sold a good name for a song
And in a small circle he drowned glory.
* * *
Execute, and prepare the soul of Eternity,
Make vows, reject love.
And there is spring! Will come and take out roses.
And the cloak of repentance is torn again!
* * *
All the desired joys - rip off!
Wider the cup Substitute with happiness!
Heaven will not appreciate your hardships.
So pour wine, songs, over the edge!
* * *
Monasteries, mosques, synagogues
And God saw a lot of cowards in them.
But not in the hearts set free by the sun
Bad seeds: slave anxiety.
* * *
I enter the mosque. The hour is late and dead.
I am not in a thirst for a miracle and not with a prayer:
Once I pulled the rug out of here,
And he was worn out. It should be different ...
* * *
Be a free-thinker! Remember our vow:
"The saint is narrow, the hypocrite is cruel."
Khayyam's preaching stubbornly sounds:
"Rob, but be wide in heart!"
* * *
The soul is light with wine! Pay tribute to her:
The jug is round-voiced. And chasing
Cup with love: so that it shines
And the golden edge was reflected.
* * *
In wine I see a scarlet spirit of fire
And the shine of the needles. Bowl for me
Crystal is a living shard of the sky.
Persian philosopher, mathematician, astronomer and poet. Contributed to algebra by constructing a classification of cubic equations and solving them using conic sections.
Born in the city of Nishapur, which is located in Khorasan (now the Iranian province of Khorasan-Rezavi). Omar was the son of a tent, he also had a younger sister named Aisha. At the age of 8, he began to deeply engage in mathematics, astronomy, philosophy. At the age of 12, Omar became a student of the Nishapur madrasah. Later he studied at the madrasah of Balkh, Samarkand and Bukhara. There, he completed a course in Muslim law and medicine with honors, receiving the qualification of a khaki ma, that is, a doctor. But medical practice was of little interest to him. He studied the works of the famous mathematician and astronomer Sabit ibn Kurra, the works of Greek mathematicians.

Poems about love
“Is it really possible to imagine a person, if only he is not a moral monster, in which such a mixture and diversity of convictions, opposite inclinations and directions, high valor and base passions, painful doubts and hesitations could be combined and coexisted ...” - to this perplexed the researcher's question has a short and comprehensive answer: it is possible, if we are talking about Omar Khayyam.
Quotes and aphorisms
In a loved one, even flaws are liked, and in an unloved, even virtues are annoying.
Why do you expect benefit from your wisdom? You will wait for the milk from the goat soon. Pretend to be a fool - and it will be more useful, And wisdom these days is cheaper than a leek.
Whoever was beaten by life will achieve more
A pood of salt, who ate higher, appreciates honey.
Who shed tears, he laughs sincerely,
He who died knows that he lives.
Don't forget that you are not alone:
And in the most difficult moments, God is next to you.
Never go back. There is no point in going back. Even if there are the same eyes in which thoughts were drowning. Even if it pulls you to where everything was still so cute, you never go there, forget forever what was. The same people live in the past that they have always promised to love. If you remembered this - forget it, you never go there. Don't believe them, they are strangers. After all, once they left you. They killed faith in the soul, in love, in people and in themselves. Live simply by living and although life is like hell, look only forward, never go back.
A brooding soul tends to loneliness.
I have never been repelled by the poverty of a person, it is another matter if his soul and thoughts are poor.
You can seduce a man who has a wife. You can seduce a man who has a mistress. But you cannot seduce a man who has a beloved woman.
Live at least a hundred, at least ten hundred years,
We'll have to leave this light all the same.
Be a padishah or a beggar in the bazaar,
You have one price: there are no dignitaries for death.
Love can do without reciprocity, but friendship never.
When you leave for five minutes
Remember to leave warmth in your palms.
In the palms of those who are waiting for you,
In the palms of those who remember you ...
No matter how great your wisdom is, - From it to you that from a goat's milk! Isn't it wiser to just play the fool? - You will be happier for sure.
You can't look into tomorrow's day today,
The mere thought of him constricts the chest with torment.
Who knows how many days you have left to live?
Don't waste them, be wise.
Only those who are worse than us think badly of us, and those who are better than us ... They simply have no time for us ...
I asked the wisest: “What have you learned
From your manuscripts? " The wisest spoke:
"Happy is he who is in the arms of a tender beauty
At night, from the wisdom of the book is far! "
Be happy this moment. This moment is your life.
The lower a person is in soul,
The higher the nose turns up!
He stretches his nose there,
Where the soul has not grown ...
Do not say that a man is a womanizer. If he was a one-woman man, then your turn would not have reached.
I think it's better to be alone
Than to give the heat of the soul to "someone"
Giving an invaluable gift to anyone
Having met a loved one, you will not be able to love.
The discouraged person dies ahead of time.
Do not trust someone who speaks beautifully, there is always a game in his words.
Trust the one who silently creates beautiful deeds.
Do not be afraid to give warming words,
And do good deeds.
The more wood you put in the fire,
The more heat will return.
Passion cannot be friends with deep love,
If he can, then they will not be together for long.
Do not look that the other is superior in mind,
And see if he is true to his word.
If he does not throw his words to the wind -
There is no price, as you yourself understand, to him.
Instead of looking for the truth, they would milk the goat!
Everything is bought and sold
And life openly laughs at us.
We are indignant, we are indignant
But we buy and sell.
Above all the teachings and rules of how to live correctly, I preferred to affirm the two foundations of dignity: It is better not to eat anything than there is, whatever is horrible; It is better to be alone than to be friends with just anyone.
Life is ashamed of those who sit and grieve,
Who does not remember pleasures, does not forgive insults ...
Omar Khayyam is rightfully considered one of the greatest scientists and philosophers of the medieval East. This, truly, a multifaceted personality, who was glorified in the centuries not only by wise aphorisms about love, happiness, and not only, but also by scientific works in mathematics, astronomy and physics.
And this makes Omar a very significant figure in the arena of human achievements for many centuries: not every person could boast of such talents: very few people like Omar Khayyam or Leonardo Da Vinci were born when a person is talented in everything, a kind of pearl of humanity.
Most often, Omar Khayyam made out his statements in rubai - quite complex poems for composing, consisting of four lines, of which three rhymed among themselves (and sometimes all four). The poet in the very real sense of the word was in love with life, with the diversity of its forms, and therefore his witty aphorisms are filled with deep meaning, which the reader is not able to understand the first time.
Writing Rubai in the medieval East, where blasphemy was severely condemned, up to the death penalty, Omar Khayyam, despite the danger of persecution, clothed his wisdom in writing, and, according to researchers, under the authorship of Omar it was written about three hundred to five hundred rubles.
Just imagine - aphorisms about life, happiness, witty quotes, and just oriental wisdom, relevant even now for each of us.
Although everything remained in order five thousand rubles, allegedly under the authorship of Omar Khayyam, most likely, these are statements about happiness and not only, his contemporaries, who were afraid to unleash severe punishment on their heads, and therefore, attributing their creations to the poet and philosopher.
Omar Khayyam, unlike them, was not afraid of punishment, and therefore his aphorisms often ridicule the gods and power, belittling their importance in the life of people, and he did it right. After all, the same happiness does not at all lie in blind obedience to theological books or the dictates of kings. Happiness is to live your best years in harmony with yourself, and quotes from the poet help to realize this simple, but such an important fact.
The best and wittiest of his statements are presented to you, and framed in interesting photos. After all, when you read a text with a meaning not just in black and white, but elegantly designed, then it is remembered much better, which is an excellent training for the mind.
In a conversation with an interlocutor, you can always effectively screw in witty quotes, flashing your erudition. You can instill in your child a love of poetry by showing him several photos where the most beautiful rubyas about friendship or happiness are beautifully decorated. Read together these wise sayings by Omar Khayyam, imbued with every word.
His quotes about happiness amaze with such a clear understanding of the world and the human soul as a person. Omar Khayyam seems to be talking to us, his aphorisms and quotes seem to be written not for everyone, but for each individually, reading his statements, we are involuntarily amazed at the depth of the images and the brightness of the metaphors.
The immortal rubyes survived their creator for many centuries, and despite the fact that they remained in oblivion for a long time, until in the Victorian era, by a lucky coincidence, a notebook was discovered containing statements and aphorisms that Omar wrote, clothed in poetic form, in the end, they gained wild popularity, first in England, and a little later throughout the world, when his statements scattered all over the world, like birds, bringing into the house of everyone who read the poet's quotes a little bit of Eastern wisdom.
Omar probably did not even suspect that for most of our contemporaries he would be known precisely as a poet and philosopher, rather than a great scientist. Most likely, both of these areas of his activity were the passion of his whole life, Omar showed real life by his example, when, if you wish, you can manage to do everything.
Often people, in whose minds a lot of talents are invested, remain alone - their activity takes too much energy, but the poet ended his life with a large family and close friends. He did not ossify and did not go entirely into science and philosophy, and this is worth a lot.
His quotes in the form of a photo can be viewed on our website, and perhaps the most liked

And today we have the wise sayings of Omar Khayyam, time-tested.
The era of Omar Khayyam, which gave birth to his wise sayings.
Omar Khayyam (18.5.1048 - 4.12.1131) lived in the era of the Eastern Middle Ages. Born in Persia (Iran) in the city of Nishapur. There he received a good education.
Omar Khayyam's outstanding abilities led him to continue his education in the largest centers of science - the cities of Balkh and Samarkand.
Already at the age of 21, he became a prominent scientist - mathematician, astrologer. Omar Khayyam wrote works of mathematics that are so outstanding that some of them have survived to our time. Some of his books have come down to us.
He left a major scientific legacy, including the calendar according to which the entire East lived from 1079 to the middle of the 19th century. The calendar is still called the Omar Khayyam Calendar. This calendar is better, more precisely, than the later introduced Gregorian calendar, according to which we live now.
Omar Khayyam was the wisest and most educated person. Astronomer, astrologer, mathematician, specialist in horoscopes - everywhere he was an advanced, outstanding scientist.
And yet, Omar Khayyam was especially famous for his wise sayings, which he rhymed in quatrains - rubai. They have come down to our time, there are many hundreds of them on various topics: about life, about love, about God, about wine and women.
We will get acquainted with some of the wise sayings of Omar Khayyam, dear readers, here.
Wise sayings of Omar Khayyam about life.
Do not mourn, mortal, yesterday's losses,
Do not measure today's day by tomorrow's yardstick,
Do not believe in the past or the coming minute,
Believe the current minute - be happy now!
Silence is a shield from many troubles,
And chatter is always harmful.
A person's tongue is small
But how many lives did he break!
In this dark world
Consider only true
Spiritual wealth
For it will never depreciate.
Kohl, you can, do not worry about the running time,
Do not burden your soul with either the past or the future,
Spend your treasures while you are alive
After all, all the same, in that world you will appear to be indigent.
To live life wisely, you need to know a lot,
Remember two important rules to start with:
You better starve than eat anything
And it is better to be alone than with just anyone.
Omar Khayyam 
If you have nooks to live in,
In our mean time, and a piece of bread,
If you are not a servant to anyone, not a master,
You are happy and truly high in spirit.
Nobility and meanness, courage and fear -
Everything is in our bodies from birth.
We will be neither better nor worse to death -
We are what Allah created us!
The wind of life is sometimes fierce.
In general, however, life is good.
And it's not scary when black bread
It's scary when a black soul ...
Don't make others angry and don't get angry yourself,
We are guests in this mortal world.
And if something goes wrong - accept it!
Be smart and smile.
Think with a cold head.
After all, everything is natural in the world:
The evil you radiated
He will certainly come back to you!
I know the world: in it a thief sits on a thief,
A wise man always loses in an argument with a fool,
The dishonest honest shames,
And a drop of happiness drowns in a sea of grief ...
Wise sayings of Omar Khayyam about love.
Beware of wounding
To the soul that keeps you and loves you.
It hurts a lot harder.
And, having forgiven everything, he will understand and not condemn.
Taking all the pain and bitterness from you,
Resignedly will remain in torment.
You will not hear insolence in words.
You will not see the evil tears sparkling.
Beware of wounding
Someone who does not respond with brute force.
And who can't heal the scars.
Whoever will humbly meet your blow.
Beware yourself of cruel wounds,
That inflicts on your soul
The one who you keep as a talisman,
But who does not carry you in his soul.
We are so cruel to those who are vulnerable.
Helpless for those we love.
We keep the traces of countless wounds,
Which we will forgive ... but do not forget !!!
It can only be shown to the sighted.
Singing a song is only for those who hear.
Give yourself to someone who is grateful
Who understands, loves and appreciates you.
We will hardly get into this world again
We won't find our friends again.
Seize the moment! After all, it will not happen again
As you yourself will not repeat yourself in it.
In this world, love is the adornment of people;
To be devoid of love is to be without friends.
The one whose heart has not clung to the drink of love,
He's a donkey, though he doesn't wear donkey ears!
Woe to a heart that is colder than ice
Doesn't burn with love, doesn't know about it,
And for the heart of a lover - a day spent
Without a beloved - the most lost of days!
Do not count your friends in abundance!
Not your friend who is driven by curiosity
and the one who will gladly share the takeoff with you ...
And whoever is in trouble ... your quiet cry ... will hear ...
Omar Khayyam
Yes, a woman is like wine
And where is the wine
It's important for a man there
Know a sense of proportion.
Don't look for a reason
In wine, if drunk -
It is not guilty.
Yes, in a woman, as in a book, there is wisdom.
Its great meaning is able to understand
Only literate.
And don't be mad at the book
Kohl, ignorant, could not read it.
Omar Khayyam
Wise sayings of Omar Khayyam about God and religion.
God is, and everything is God! Here is the focus of knowledge
Gotted by me from the Book of the Universe.
I saw the radiance of Truth in my heart,
And the darkness of godlessness burned to the ground.
Raging in cells, mosques and churches,
Hope to enter heaven and fear of hell.
Only in the soul who understood the secret of the world,
The sap of these weeds is completely dry and withered.
In the Book of Destinies, not a word can be changed.
Those who suffer eternally cannot be excused.
You can drink your bile until the end of your life:
Life cannot be shortened and cannot be lengthened. Omar Khayyam
We are the goal of the creator and the pinnacle of creation.
Wisdom, intelligence, source of insight - we.
This circle of the universe is like a ring.
—
It contains a faceted diamond, no doubt we are!
What did a contemporary say about the wisdom of Omar Khayyam, about his life and death.
Omar Khayyam had many students who left memories of him.
Here are the memories of one of them:
“Once in the city of Bali, on the street of slave traders, in the palace of the emir, at a feast during a merry conversation, our teacher Omar Khayyam said:“ I will be buried in a place where always on the days of the vernal equinox a fresh wind will shower flowers of fruit branches. ” Twenty-four years later, I visited Nishapur, where this great man was buried, and asked to show me his grave. They took me to the Khaira cemetery, and I saw a grave at the foot of the garden wall, shaded by pear and apricot trees and showered with flower petals so that it was completely hidden under them. I remembered the words spoken in Balkh and wept. Nowhere in the whole world, up to its inhabited borders, has there been a man like him. "
