This document is a single page bearing the Bates stamp HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_016062. It contains two philosophical quotes: one attributed to physicist Niels Bohr regarding the difficulty of prediction, and a stanza from the Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam (translated by Edward FitzGerald) regarding the permanence of the past. There is also a line of Arabic script that appears to be the title 'Rubaiyat Omar Khayyam' written with disconnected letters in reverse order (left-to-right), suggesting a formatting error in the original document creation.
