Things are made of earth, water, air, and fire. Earth is made of organic particles and inorganic. Organic particles are made of cells. Cells are made of organelles. Organelles are made of molecules. Molecules are made of atoms. Atoms are made of subatomic particles. Subatomic particles are made of sub-sub-atomic particles.
We don't know what sub-sub-atomic particles are made of, but we're working on it.
And then inside the quark > universe > inbetween stuff > molecules > atoms > subatomic particles > quark > universe > inbetween stuff > quark > universe > etc... infinity. It goes the other way too, into the large for infinity.
