Thought is an attribute that really does belong to me. This alone cannot be detached from me. I am, I exist; this is certain. But for how long? For as long as I think. Because perhaps it could also come to pass that if I should cease from all thinking I would then utterly cease to exist. I now admit nothing that is not necessarily true. I am therefore precisely only a thing that thinks; that is, a mind or soul, or intellect, or reason – words the meaning of which I was ignorant before. Now, I am a true thing, and truly existing, but what kind of thing? I have said it already; a thing that thinks. -Descartes-
