“Chercher la maladie au niveau de la cellule c'est confondre le plan de la vie concrète où la polarité biologique fait la différence de la santé et de la maladie et le plan de la science abstraite où le problème reçoit une solution. Nous ne voulons pas dire qu'une cellule ne peut pas être malade, si par cellule on entend un tout vivant, mais nous voulons dire que la maladie d'un vivant ne loge pas dans des parties de l'organisme.”
