Well, in a way similar to René Descartes, who said: "I think, therefore I am". Off course, we cannot even be quite sure there is such a thing as the self, doing the thinking, but there is at least something experiencing itself to be me and thinking. This is what I mean with knowledge in its deepest, philosophical meaning.
