Cogito ergo sum.

Such a statement is ignorant of the fact that "I" is presupposed. If thinking is a beginning, what is the end? Doing? It's a beginning. I think therefore I am.

I could as well state: I feel therefore I am, as research has showed that thinking cannot be complete without feeling. Both originate in and are products of our brain / body. [1][2]Cogito ergo sum.
