    In Moulmein‚ in lower Burma‚ I was hated by large numbers of people--the  only time in my life that I have been important enough for this to happen  to me.

As  a police officer I was an obvious target and was baited whenever

    Perhaps the best way to approach this essay would be to first differentiate between the statements. "I think therefore I am" is a translation from Rene Descartes’ original French statement‚ "Je pense‚ donc je suis" or as it is more famously known in Latin‚ "cogito ergo sum".
