<br />
<br />
There's always two of me just a-hangin' around<br />
I think I'm a clone now<br />
'Cause every pair of genes is a hand-me-down
{{quote|Yeah, I resulted to be a clone of myself from an alternative-future-imaginary-world or something like that. Listen, is this going to affect my welfare check?|'''Alan Moore''', ''Tomorrow Stories''}}
Line 42:
''Someone else has said.''|'''[[The Who|John Entwistle]]''', "905"}}
{{quote|You look in the mirror, but someone else looks back. You remember a life you never had, one that cannot be yours. You are the piece that does not fit, you don't belong in this game. The board has been knocked over, you shall be swept away...
| ''[[El Goonish Shive]]''}}
{{quote|'''[[The Captain|Tagon]]''': [[Mad Scientist|Kevyn]] and, um...Kevyn, do you have any suggestions for how I handle paying you? I mean, there are two of you now.<br />
'''Timeclone!Kevyn''': No. There is one of me, and one of him.

{{quote|There's lots of him. Who'd miss this one?

{{quote|My name is Jennifer Lucas. I'm not a factory part. I had toast for my breakfast. I wrote a letter to my mum. [...] I am Jennifer Lucas! I remember everything that happened in her entire life! Every birthday, every childhood illness. I feel everything she has ever felt, and more! I'm not a monster. I am me! Me! Me! Me! ME!|'''Jennifer Lucas' Ganger''', ''[[Doctor Who]]''}}▼
'''Kowalski''': I <u>''hate''</u> this part. I've cloned my selfstream hundreds of times, and ''still'' I hate it. <br />
'''Kowalski''': There's a fifty-fifty chance ''I'll'' be the version that wakes up disposable, [[Body Snatcher|downjacking a sleeper]]. <br />
'''Kowalski''': One mission, then I'm lucky she'll get to [[Brain Uploading|upload a gestalt]]. A gestalt, but ''not'' the selfstream. <br />
'''Kowalski''': I'll remember the mission, right up until the moment I die. ''Again''. <br />
'''Admiral Emm''': Take solace in the fact that you've saved more lives than you've lost. <br />
'''Kowalski''': I'm just happy that I've killed more times than I've died.

{{quote|'''Dani''': Stop fighting. I know you're too weak to beat me!<br />
Line 57 ⟶ 70:
'''Dani''': Then let my father have your morph DNA! So he can save me!<br />
'''Danny''': He's not going to save you! He's ''using'' you! You're nothing but a mess he's not gonna clean up!<br />
'''Dani''': You're LYING! ''(blasts him)''

{{quote|'''Nasdra Magrody:''' "While the loss of material is extremely taxing, as well as the many navy crews who have lost their lives.<br />
'''Lyrax Pentigure:''' "Not to mention our clone troops."<br />
'''Nasdra Magrody:''' "As I said, material, yes."

{{quote|Today I slew my twin brothers seven times and nearly died four times at the hands of my twins. [[War Is Hell|What kind of war is this]] <br />
that we replicate ourselves time and again, only to waste our own lives on axe blades dulled by endless internecine fighting? <br />
Which one of us represents the hopes and dreams of our shared parents? Is it truly death if I am reborn time and again? <br />
Am I more worthy of living or is my twin? Might we not [[Turned Against Their Masters|ally ourselves - the Spawned - against the Firsts]] who recline on golden thrones, <br />
stirring themselves only to order us into fratricide? <br />
... <br />
Perhaps we are no longer even dwarves. When a work of art is copied, and that copy is copied again and again, the results become gross parodies of the original. <br />
I fear that I am but a pale imitation of the First I once was, willingly killing myself in an absurd parody of narcissism.
