H. makes a key difference between _the same_ (das Selbe) and _the similar_
(das Gleiche). The same means that two completely different things can have
a common (same) origin. This way of thinking different things together is
also proper to, for instance, dialectics (Hegel), but Hegel aims at
surmounting the differences in a forthcoming new synthesis, while H. goes
back (instead of Hegelian _forth_) to the roots (or beginning/Anfang, not
Beginn or start in time). Sorry I have not the citations ready at the moment
