Cogito cogito ergo cogito sum

Cogito cogito ergo cogito sum

Summary

This quote, "Cogito cogito ergo cogito sum", translates to "I think, I think, therefore I think, I am." It highlights the concept of existence and self-awareness through thought. The repetition emphasizes the importance of thinking in validating one's own existence and being. It implies that the act of thinking itself is evidence of one's existence, as it is through introspection and reflection that we affirm our own reality as thinking beings. This quote encapsulates the philosophical idea of cogito ergo sum, or "I think, therefore I am," coined by RenÃ© Descartes.
