Quotation of the Day for January 25, 2011



Then to the Lip of this poor earthen Urn
I lean'd, the secret Well of Life to learn:
And Lip to Lip it murmur'd -- "While you live,
Drink! -- for, once dead, you never shall return."

- The Rubaiyyat of Omar Khayyam, XXXV, translated by Edward FitzGerald.
