Picture something producing another of itself — a second copy where there was one. Living things do it by making young; a printing press does it by making pictures; a scientist does it by making the same result happen twice. The common thread is that the second one matches the first closely enough to count as the same thing again.

可以想成:某樣東西又生出一個同樣的自己——本來只有一個,現在有了第二個。生物靠繁殖來做這件事,印刷機靠複製圖像,科學家則靠讓同樣的結果再出現一次。共通的線索是:第二個和第一個像到可以算「同一樣東西又出現了」。
