Physical defects
don't affect my sanity --
I am    (a thinker)!
Lichaamsgebreken
tasten mijn verstand niet aan --	greifen meinen Geist nicht an --
ik ben     (een denker)!	ich bin    (ein Denker)!

I think, therefore I am - 1644
"Je pense, donc je suis" ("Cogito ergo sum" / "I think, therefore I am", 1644, "Discours de la Méthode", René Descartes) is about whether physical existence is real, thereby separating the physical and spiritual side of existence; this division is imaginary, but it can be an aid to ethical choices and to willpower
