(The following text is read aloud to Mother.)

"Each cellular nucleus holds in its chromosomes the plan of

 the entire organism…. The chromosomic apparatus of any

 one cell represents both the "totality" of the individual and the

 "local" organ it belongs to. This organization could best be

 compared to that of an ideal human community in which each

 member would be conscious of the whole community and at

 the same time of his own intelligent personal function within

 the community.

 (Werner Schupbach)
