OSKAR RESCHER

Osman Reşer (1883-1972)

“He was blond-haired and blue-eyed, medium height or a little taller, and generally wore a tie. He would eat, and he was also fond of cats. He was a little indifferent in terms of character. He wasn’t one to talk too much. He would speak if necessary. He was a little disheveled. It was like he would scoff at life, which he generally looked at standoffishly. He was of the conviction that many ideas were in error, such that he didn’t give importance to material life. He was mystical to a degree. Apart from academia, he didn’t give anything the attention it needed. He was serious when facing knowledge. He regretted none of his choices.”
