    I don't know what you are trying to say here but I think the correct quote is the following:
    Cogito, ergo sum
    (Descartes, Méditations métaphysique)

    In French:
    Je pense, donc je suis
    or in English:
    I think, so I'am

    I think, therefore I am
    ...which for me means...

    I don't, therefore I'm not
    ...hee hee...

    Vorlin, how about this one:

    Veni, Vidi, Construxi Astrum Morte
    I came, I saw, I built a Death Star

    under wear

    My favorite was always:

    semper ubi sub ubi
    Always wear underwear
    (roughly transliterated so as not to offend the nuns!)

    Haha, always wear underwear...it's like the people back then are the same as moms are nowadays..."Did you put on clean underwear?" before going out with the car. I can see it, "Did you put on clean underwear?" to the kid who's about to "take out the horse and carriage"...because they're afraid their son/daughter's gonna be in a 'carriage head-on' or something and be rushed to the 'nearby hospital (inn)' where they're found to have dirty underwear! Go figure...hehe

    I'm amazed no one has posted my favorite latin phrase...

    Veni, Vidi, Napi
    Which means, "I came, I saw, I napped."

    Enjoy

    I know you\'re out there. I can feel you now. I know that you\'re afraid. You\'re afraid of us. You\'re afraid of change. I don\'t know the future. I didn\'t come here to tell you how this is going to end. I came here to tell you how it\'s going to begin. I\'m going to hang up this phone, and then I\'m going to show these people what you don\'t want them to see. I\'m going to show them a world without you, a world without rules and controls, without borders or boundaries. A world where anything is possible. Where we go from there is a choice I leave to you.
