John Tyler Bonner Zitate

In the seventeenth century, it was held by some that inside a human sperm there was a minute human being - a homunculus - that was planted inside the womb. Development consisted of the miniature homunculus enlarging and passing through birth and on to maturity-just like inflating a balloon.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Im 17. Jahrhundert wurde von einigen Menschen behauptet, dass sich in einem menschlichen Sperma ein winziger Mensch - ein Homunkulus - befand, der in die Gebärmutter eingepflanzt wurde. Die Entwicklung bestand darin, dass sich der Homunkulus der Miniatur vergrößerte und durch die Geburt und bis zur Reife durchging - genau wie das Aufblasen eines Ballons.

When children draw or do rudimentary painting, the whole human being develops an interest in what is being done. This is why we should allow writing to develop from drawing.
