["I am that I am"]

Claudia, can I ask why you're asking this sort of question.. is it a general query, or some sort of homework help?

No, Michelle...sometimes sentences just pop up in my mind, but I cannot remember the origin... For instance, in this case I was listening the song "I am what I am" and I remember that I knew also the other sentence. So, I thought I might have read it in some books. Thus, I asked the help of the forum. Is it a problem?

["I am that I am"]

Dear All,

 

what do you know about this "I am that I am". From which book does it come from??

 

Thanks

 

Claudia

["They have made a lot of hats there. And there is a canal."]

Panama hats and the Panama canal or probably what most people associate Panama with - to me that's all the author is trying to get across - the association?

I thought something more deep. Anyhow at the end I found it: Panama by McGuane

["They have made a lot of hats there. And there is a canal."]

The Tailor of Panama by John le Carré?

Thanks. I think so too. but I do not get the meaning of the sentence...

["They have made a lot of hats there. And there is a canal."]

Dear All,

 

Who wrote this sentence: "They have made a lot of hats there. And there is a canal."? Should be a book about Panama. I cannot find it ....Please help me!!!

Thanks you
