Charles Darwin (in his letter to ASA Gray. April, 1860):
“I remember well the time when the thought of the eye made me cold all over, but I have got over this stage of the complaint, and now small trifling particulars of structure often make me feel uncomfortable. The sight of a feather in a peathingy's tail, whenever I gaze at it, makes me sick!"
I wonder what he thought of this little fella:
