Omar Khayyam On Love

"If you are looking for love,
try to attract every heart.
On the path of the Presence,
try to entice every seeker.
A hundred holy shrines made
of water and clay
are not worth a single heart.
Why make pilgrimage
to a shrine
when you can attract a heart?"

- Omar Khayyam 18, translated by Juan Cole
