Question 1:
Usually translated into English as "I think, therefore I am", the Latin phrase cogito, ergo sum is the "first principle" of this philosopher.
Descartes's statement became a fundamental element of Western philosophy, as it purported to provide a certain foundation for knowledge in the face of radical doubt.
