My father, Robert Ernst, was teaching as an architect at the technical high school of our city.

I wanted to understand the secrets behind my chemical experiments and behind the processes in nature.

I am not surprised that they show no intention to follow in my footsteps, although if I had a second chance myself, I would certainly try to repeat my present career.
