Omar Khayyam: They call you Chosen One... the Seventh Excellent Creature.Are you also to be appointed Caliph, interpreting the Will of God, Supreme Ruler above all earthly kings?
Hasani Sabah: If it were not so, I could not wear these robes nor hold this office.
Omar Khayyam: You have named me your Counsellor, but

Omar Khayyam: I am happier with lesser matters, like this strip of vellum on which I have reduced the year to better reckoning. These figures will guide the lives of men when our mouths have been stopped with the dust of a thousand years, and the name Omar Khayyam is just as long forgotten. These figures, written on the skins of lambs, have more power than all your daggers and secret plans. Such men as you have arisen in every generation, from the dawn of mankind to our times, each with another form of the ancient conspiracy to rule this Earth. Millions of men have died to prove them wrong. What you are doing is not new, and will never be old. And when you have failed - as all those before you have failed and miserably died - it will happen again, and over again, as long as my calendar shall last.
[pause]
Omar Khayyam: But my calendar may not last an hour. Only sworn Assassins leave this rock.

Nostalgic Fun Adventure

Omar Khayyam is no biopic or documentary on the life and works of the poet, astronomer and mathematician but a fine adventure romance flick of the 50s shot in beautiful Technicolor. So if you are in the mood for some classic shot of the 40s and 50s (Arabian Nights, The Thief of Bagdad, Son of Ali Baba and The 7th Voyage of Sinbad to name a few), Omar Khayyam may just provide the right shot of adventure and nostalgia. I watched this one per chance for the first time these days and the movie send me right back to that glorious and simple times of Hollywood adventure movies in Technicolor. For sure not one of the best of that era, but a solid and fun one.
