Answer: The quote means that a son can inherit the physical traits of his father, but the father has no genetic control over their son's personality traits.

Explanation: In "My Name Is Aram" by William Saroyan, the narrator makes this statement because Mourad resembled his father Zorab, but possessed the same personality traits as his uncle, Khosrove.
