Note, too, his answer to the question, “But isn’t forgery like plagiarism?”
Technically speaking, it’s the opposite. (Plagiarists take credit for other people’s work, whereas forgers attribute their own work to others.)

Plagiarism is the flip side of forgery: forgers pass off their own work as that of someone else, while plagiarists pass off the work of others as their own.
