Antonie van Leeuwenhoek Quote

In the past summer I have made many observations upon various waters, and in almost all discovered an abundance of very little and odd animalcules, whereof some were incredibly small, less even than the animalcules which others have discovered in water, and which have been called by the name of Water-flea or Water-louse.
