Omar Khayyam quotes about life from the famous philosopher.
1. To be beautiful does not mean to be born to them,
After all, we can learn beauty.
When a man is beautiful in soul -
What looks can match her?
2. The lower the person's soul, the higher the nose turns up.
He reaches with his nose where his soul has not matured.
3. Whoever is beaten by life will achieve more.
A pood of salt who has eaten appreciates honey more.
Who sheds tears, he sincerely laughs.
Who died, he knows that he lives!
4. Two people were looking at the same window. One saw rain and mud.
The other is green foliage, spring and blue sky.
Two people were looking out the same window.
5. We are a source of fun - and a mine of sorrow.
We are a reservoir of filth - and a pure spring.
Man, as if in a mirror, the world has many faces.
He is insignificant - and he is immensely great!
6. How often, making mistakes in life, we lose those we value.
Trying to please strangers, sometimes we run from our neighbor.
We lift up those who are not worth us, but we betray the most faithful.
Who loves us so much, we offend, and we ourselves are waiting for an apology.
7. We will never get into this world again,
never meet with friends at the table.
Catch every flying moment -
never wait for him later.
8. Do not envy the one who is strong and rich,
Sunrise is always followed by sunset.
With this life short, equal to a breath,
Treat as with this one for rent.
9. I think it's better to be alone
How to give the heat of the soul to "someone".
Giving a priceless gift to just anyone,
Having met a native, you will not be able to love.
10. Isn't it funny to save a penny for a whole century,
If you can't buy eternal life anyway?
This life was given to you, my dear, for a while, -
Try not to waste time.
11. Giving yourself away does not mean selling.
And next to sleep - does not mean to sleep.
Not to take revenge does not mean to forgive everything.
Not to be near does not mean not to love.
12. 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.
13. To live life wisely, you need to know a lot,
Two important rules to remember to get started:
You'd rather starve than eat anything
And it's better to be alone than with just anyone.
14. Do no evil - it will return as a boomerang,
Do not spit in the well - you will drink water,
Do not insult someone who is lower in rank,
And suddenly you have to ask for something.
15. Do not betray your friends, you cannot replace them,
And do not lose your loved ones - you will not return,
Don't lie to yourself - over time you'll check
That you are betraying yourself with this lie.
15. A plucked flower should be presented, a poem begun should be completed, and the beloved woman should be happy, otherwise you shouldn’t have taken on something that you can’t do.

On May 18, we honor the memory of the great Persian thinker and poet Omar Khayyam. He was born in 1048 and is known throughout the world as a philosopher, physician, astronomer, mathematician and lover of life.
He became famous for expounding his thoughts on life, love, happiness and deep wisdom in poetic aphorisms - quatrains "Rubai". They have come down to us and are understandable and close to people after many centuries. His statements penetrate directly into the hearts, help to change and live correctly. They are simple, kind and often humorous. I offer you the brightest quotes of the great writer.

He sticks his nose in there

Other doors. New Years.
And we can't get away from ourselves,

Do not surrender to unimportant things in captivity,
Consider only the omnipresent spirit as existing in the world,
Alien to any material change.

The sword of fate is raised above your head.
No matter how sweet the glory, but the poison is ready
At fate. Beware of poisoning with halva!

To be beautiful does not mean they are born,
After all, we can learn beauty.
When a man is beautiful in soul -
What looks can match her?
We are a source of fun - and a mine of sorrow.
We are a reservoir of filth - and a pure spring.
Man, as if in a mirror, the world has many faces.
He is insignificant - and he is immensely great!
We will never be in this world again
never meet with friends at the table.
Catch every flying moment -
never wait for him later.

Selection topic: the wisdom of life, about love for a man and a woman, Omar Khayyam quotes and famous sayings about life, short and long, about love and people ... Omar Khayyam's brilliant statements about various aspects of a person's life path have become famous throughout the world.
Omar Khayyam is a great Persian poet and philosopher, who became famous all over the world for his wise sayings. At home, he is also known as a mathematician, astronomer and astrologer. In mathematical treatises, the scientist presented ways to solve complex equations. The circle of his scientific achievements also includes the development of a new solar calendar.
Most of all, Omar Khayyam was glorified by his literary and philosophical activities. Omar Khayyam is the author of quatrain poems - rubaiyat. They are written in Farsi. There is an opinion that initially rubaiyat were translated into English, and only then into other languages of the world, including Russian.
Probably, there is no such topic that Omar Khayyam would not devote his work to. He wrote about life, about love, about friends, about happiness, about fate. In the poet's work there are also reflections on reincarnation, on the soul, on the role of money, in his poems (rubai), he even described wine, a jug and a familiar potter. Initially, the poet's work caused a lot of controversy, some considered him a freethinker and a reveler, others saw him as a deep thinker. To date, Omar Khayyam is recognized as the most talented author of the rubaiyat, and his work undoubtedly deserves attention.
Isn't it funny to save a penny for a whole century,
If you can't buy eternal life anyway?
This life was given to you, my dear, for a while, -
Try not to miss the time!
Life is to be valued.
Be easy on people. Do you want to be wiser -
Do not hurt with your wisdom.
Clever is not wise.
You say this life is just a moment.
Appreciate it, draw inspiration from it.
As you spend it, so it will pass,
Don't forget: she is your creation.
Life is given one, and it must be loved.
The one who is discouraged dies prematurely.
As long as you believe in yourself, as long as you live.
To live life wisely, you need to know a lot,
Two important rules to remember to get started:
You'd rather starve than eat anything
And it's better to be alone than with just anyone.
In life, you need to understand, and not act by inertia.
About love
A plucked flower must be presented, a poem begun must be completed, and the beloved woman must be happy, otherwise it was not worth taking on something that is beyond your power.
If you are not confident in your abilities, it is better not to take it.
Like the sun, it burns without burning, love.
Like a bird of heavenly paradise - love.
But not yet love - nightingale groans.
Do not moan, dying of love - love!
Love is like a flame that warms souls.
Know that the main source of being is love.
The meaning of life is the one who loves.
In this world, love is the decoration of people,
To be deprived of love is to be without friends.
The one whose heart did not cling to the drink of love,
He is an ass, even though he does not wear donkey ears!
Not to love means not to live, but to exist.
In a loved one, even flaws are liked, and in an unloved person, even virtues annoy.
Happiness cannot be found with an unloved person.
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!
Being a wife and a beloved woman is not always the same thing.
About friendship
If you do not share in time with a friend -
All your fortune will go to the enemy.
For a friend, nothing can be regretted.
Have smaller friends, do not expand their circle.
And remember: it is better to have a close, distant friend.
The less common affairs, the more trust.
A true friend is a person who will tell you everything that he thinks about you, and tell everyone that you are a wonderful person.
But in life it's quite the opposite.
Hurt a friend - you make an enemy,
Embrace the enemy - you will find a friend.
The main thing is not to confuse.
The most witty
If a vile medicine pours you - pour it out!
If a wise man pours you poison, take it!
The wise must be listened to.
It is better to gnaw bones than to be seduced by sweets
At the table of the bastards who have power.
Do not give in to temptation, power is a vile thing.
Those who did not seek the path are unlikely to be shown the path -
Knock and the door to destiny will open!
Who seeks will always find!
One does not understand what roses smell like ...
Another of the bitter herbs will produce honey ...
Give someone a trifle, forever remember ...
You will give your life to someone, but he will not understand ...
Everyone is different, there is no doubt about it.
The work of Omar Khayyam is filled with meanings. All the sayings of the great thinker and poet make you think and rethink life.
