I allmänhet skadar man inte sig själv för att man har en önskan att dö, utan tvärtom som ett sätt att kontrollera en mycket stark själslig smärta.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recursion
One rule invoking another rule.
Recursion, in mathematics and computer science, is a method of defining functions in which the function being defined is applied within its own definition; specifically it is defining an infinite statement using finite components. The term is also used more generally to describe a process of repeating objects in a self-similar way. For instance, when the surfaces of two mirrors are exactly parallel with each other the nested images that occur are a form of infinite recursion.
A recursive procedure must complete every one of its steps. Even if a new running is called in one of its steps, each running must run through the remaining steps.
Newcomers to recursion are often bewildered by its apparent circularity, until they learn to appreciate that a termination condition is key.
A variation is:
Recursion
If you still don't get it, see: "Recursion".
which actually does terminate, as soon as the reader "gets it."
An infinity of sentences. Infinite use of finite media (music, DNA, sentences...)

Mirror neurons are located in the human inferior frontal cortex and superior parietal lobe, and are unique in that they fire when one completes an action and also when one witnesses an actor performing the same action.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_auxiliary_language
The term "auxiliary" implies that it is intended to be an additional language for the people of the world, rather than to replace their native languages... it can also refer to the concept of such a language being determined by international consensus, including even a standardized natural language, and has also been connected to the project of constructing a universal language... Laissez-faire. This approach is taken in the belief that one language will eventually and inevitably "win out" as a world auxiliary language (e.g., International English) without any need for specific action.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_English
International English is the concept of the English language as a global means of communication in numerous dialects, and also the movement towards an international standard for the language. It is also referred to as Global English, World English, Common English, Continental English or General English. Sometimes these terms refer simply to the array of varieties of English spoken throughout the world.
