The official text is not "I am therefore..." but a lot of people say that, so I assume you mean the original text.
René Descartes said "I doubt therefore..."
It's from part 1 of his "Principles of Philosophy" and part 4 of his "Discourse on the Method."
Original quote: "Dubito ergo cogito; Cogito ergo sum"

It's been amended.
The current phrase is:
"I thought, therefore I was."

Well, I want to say "am" although:
1.) It's not the original text, I know that much.
and
2.) It's not all that true, and it implies the latter statement.
