Omar Khayyam : 

"I have read, too, or repeated, for I know him by heart, our old friend Omar Khyyam. He is grand in his way & if spiritualised a little, strikes a right note at times but he needs to be a little spiritualised. Yet honestly, literature & religion are rather empty. The only thing is living affection & of that I have had most touching experience."

Century: 1850-1899     Reader/Listener/Group: Leslie Stephen      Print: Book
