Quote

Here's an interesting quote I read this morning:

Minute creatures swarm around us ... objects of potentially endless study and admiration, if we are willing to sweep our vision down from the world lined by the horizon to include the world an arm's length away.  A lifetime can be spent in a Magellanic voyage around the trunk of a tree. -- E. O. Wilson

Edward O. Wilson is a retired Harvard professor who, among many other accomplishments, studies ants.
