Omar Hayam. The best aphorisms

Persian sage, astronomer, mathematician, physicist and philosopher, Omar Hayyam (c. 1048–1131) is the author of the famous Rubai who glorify love and beauty, life in all its manifestations. The book included the best aphorisms of the great poet in classical translations, characterized by expressive compression and artistry, a deep elegic feeling, sometimes a well -aimed, mocking wit.

Until now, loved both in the east and in the West, these quatrains give strength in difficult times and offer the reader a view of the world filled with deep meaning and enduring wisdom.
