"I think, therefore I am."
Descartes referd to the fact that the only thing that you can be sure of in all reality is the fact that you exist. He proposed that God is an evil genius whose only purpose for being was to decieve him. He goes on to say that the senses cannot be trusted, as they can be tricked. The mind cannot be trusted because you may be insane. The body cannot be trusted because it may not really exist. The only thing you can be sure of is the fact that you exist, because if you didn't, you wouldn't be thinking. "I think, therefore I am"
