There are similarities between being an editor and a tailor. Tailors have a vast supply of fabrics, buttons and thread at their disposal and put it together to make a whole. That's what an editor does - looks at society at a given time and pulls together the interesting aspects into a single issue each month.

编辑和裁缝之间存在相似之处。裁缝拥有丰富的面料、纽扣和线材，并将它们组合成一个整体。这同样也是编辑的工作方式——在特定的时间段内审视社会，并将有趣的方面整合到每月一期之中。
