Be happy for this moment. This moment is your life.
From Omar Khayyam
A loaf of bread, a jug of wine, and thou.
When I want to understand what is happening today or try to decide what will happen tomorrow, I look back.
The moving finger writes, and having written moves on. Nor all thy piety nor all thy wit, can cancel half a line of it.
Living Life Tomorrow's fate, though thou be wise, Thou canst not tell nor yet surmise; Pass, therefore, not today in vain, For it will never come again.
Drink! for you know not whence you came nor why: drink! for you know not why you go, nor where.
A hair divides what is false and true.
The Worldly Hope men set their Hearts upon Turns Ashes - or it prospers; and anon, Like Snow upon the Desert's dusty Face, Lighting a little hour or two - is gone.
Myself when young did eagerly frequent doctor and saint, and heard great argument about it and about: but evermore came out by the same door as in I went.
There was a door to which I found no key: There was the veil through which I might not see.
