There was a door to which I found no key: There was the veil through which I might not see.

quote by Omar Khayyam

As a mathematician, he is most notable for his work on the classification and solution of cubic equations, where he provided a geometric formulation based on the intersection of conics.

There was a Door to which I found no Key

by Omar Khayyam

 

English version by Edward FitzGerald

Original Language Persian/Farsi

 

There was a Door to which I found no Key:

There was a Veil through which I could not see:

Some little Talk awhile of Me and Thee

There seemed -- and then no more of Thee and Me.
