Modern Optigin Babasi ( The father of modern optics ) Arap fizikci, matematikci ve filozof Ibn-i Heysem'in dogum yildonumu ( 1 Temmuz 965 )
" Dogruyu arayan sadece eskilerin yazdiklari uzerine calisan ve dogal icguduleriyle onlara guvenen degil, aksine onlara olan inancini dizginleyen ve onlardan ogrendiklerini sorgulayan, tartisan ve gozlemleyen, ve dogustan kusurlu ve bozuk olan insanoglunun soylemlerine bel baglamayandir. Bundan dolayi onceki alimleri arastiran kisinin gorevi, eger ki amaci hakikati bulmaksa, kendini tum okuduklarinin dusmani olarak gormek ve aklini kullanarak okudugu icerigin ozune ve kapsamina her acidan saldirmaktir. Ve ayni zamanda bunlari yaparken kendinden de suphe duymaktir, ki boylelikle onyargiya ve kayirmaya dusmekten kurtulabilsin. "
" The seeker after the truth is not one who studies the writings of the ancients and, following his natural disposition, puts his trust in them, but rather the one who suspects his faith in them and questions what he gathers from them, the one who submits to argument and demonstration, and not to the sayings of a human being whose nature is fraught with all kinds of imperfection and deficiency. Thus the duty of the man who investigates the writings of scientists, if learning the truth is his goal, is to make himself an enemy of all that he reads, and, applying his mind to the core and margins of its content, attack it from every side. He should also suspect himself as he performs his critical examination of it, so that he may avoid falling into either prejudice or leniency. "
