Hi Martin,
I found it --- in Russian, vol.1 of "Sobranie Sochinenii", on page 416.
It reads in Russian as very similar to the English quote your posted above:

"Ведь -- after all-- краеугольным камнем материализма -- a corneestone of
materialism -- является положение о том, -- is a proposition about, --- что
сознание и мозг есть продукт --- (that) consciousness and the brain are,
both, a product (of nature),--- часть природы, ---(and) a part of nature, --
 отражающаюцая остальную природу -- (the one) that reflects the rest of
nature"

Or something like this.

Hope this is helpful, and not making things more confusing.

Cheers,
Natalia.
