“That is to say, mimesis, unlike the explicit imitation of one person by another, is never something that one agent does to another, but something that people do to each other, something that always involves reciprocally more than one person.”

“The “psychological movement” that the adult's suggestion brings about in the child has an intentioned teleology. This phenomenon—the imitation of goals and aims, intentions and desires—is what Girard has called mimetic desire.”

“Infants differentially responded to tongue protrusion with tongue protrusion and not lip protrusion, showing that a specific body part can be identified. Infants also differentially responded to lip protrusion versus lip opening, showing that differential action patterns can be imitated with the same body part. They even differentially imitated two separate kinds of acts with the tongue—one that is poking in-out from the midline, and the other that is poking in-out from the side of the mouth.”
