If an intelligent extra-terrestrial was taxed with writing the encyclopedia of life on our planet, 27 out of 30 of these volumes would be devoted to bacteria and virus, with just a few of the volumes left for plants, fungus and animals, humans being a footnote; interesting footnote but a footnote nonetheless.
Kada bi inteligentni vanzemaljac dobio zadatak da napiše enciklopediju života na našem planetu, 27 od 30 svezaka bili bi posvećeni bakterijama i virusima, a svega nekoliko svezaka bilo bi posvećeno biljkama, gljivama i životinjama - ljudi bi bili samo fusnota – zanimljiva fusnota, ali ipak fusnota.
