Midichlorians 


this is dialouge from an early draft of the script.  if you don't want spoilers.  you might as well leave.................but.....this stuff is really cool !!!! 


 
ANAKIN
Sir. . . I've been wondering sir. . . what are midi-chlorians?
 
QUI-GON
A microscopic life form that resides in all living cells and communicates with the Force. The midi-chlorian are actually one vast entity that encompass the universe, but is broken into an infinite number of small pieces that reside
in every living thing.
 
ANAKIN
They live inside me?
 
QUI-GON
Inside you cells. We are symbiont with the midi-chlorians.
 
ANAKIN
Symbiont?
 
QUI-GON
 
Living together for mutual advantage. Without the midi-chlorians, life could not exist, and we would have no knowledge of the Force. They speak to you
 all the time, telling you the will of the Force.
 
ANAKIN
They do???
 
QUI-GON
Some call it intuition. . . the voices within you. When you learn to quiet your   mind, you will hear them speaking to you.
 
ANAKIN
I don't understand. . .
 
QUI-GON
With time and training, you will.
