11. Knowledge Aims / B. Certain Knowledge / 4. The Cogito

21220	The physical given, unlike the mental given, could be non-existing [Husserl]
	Full Idea: Anything physical which is given in person can be non-existing, no mental process which is given in person can be non-existing.
	From: Edmund Husserl (Ideas: intro to pure phenomenology [1913], II.2.046), quoted by Victor Velarde-Mayol - On Husserl 3.3.5
	A reaction: This endorsement of Descartes shows how strong the influence of the Cogito remained in later continental philosophy. Phenomenology is a footnote to Descartes.
