Jesus was speaking of having created Adam and Eve at the beginning of the creation. This was not a comment on any other life forms.

God's commentary regarding creating the universe. Notice how often the creation of the universe is tied to the creation of man:

Isa 45:12 I have made the earth, and created man upon it: I, [even] my hands, have stretched out the heavens, and all their host have I commanded.

Zec 12:1 The burden of the word of the LORD for Israel, saith the LORD, which stretcheth forth the heavens, and layeth the foundation of the earth, and formeth the spirit of man within him.

Isa 42:5 Thus saith God the LORD, he that created the heavens, and stretched them out; he that spread forth the earth, and that which cometh out of it; he that giveth breath unto the people upon it, and spirit to them that walk therein:

Isa 45:18 For thus saith the LORD that created the heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; he hath established it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I [am] the LORD; and [there is] none else.

Isa 40:21-22
Have ye not known? have ye not heard? hath it not been told you from the beginning? have ye not understood from the foundations of the earth?
22 [It is] he that sitteth upon the circle of the earth, and the inhabitants thereof [are] as grasshoppers; that stretcheth out the heavens as a curtain, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in:

Isa 64:4 For since the beginning of the world [men] have not heard, nor perceived by the ear, neither hath the eye seen, O God, beside thee, [what] he hath prepared for him that waiteth for him.

Psa 104:2 Who coverest [thyself] with light as [with] a garment: who stretchest out the heavens like a curtain:

Again, more passages speaking about Adam:

Gen 5:1 This [is] the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that God created man, in the likeness of God made he him;

Mat 19:4 And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made [them] at the beginning made them male and female,

Deu 4:32 For ask now of the days that are past, which were before thee, since the day that God created man upon the earth,

Nice cites but the Bible is not a science book.

If your faith is so weak that you can't withstand some scientific theories then you should go to a monastery and close the doors behind you.

God made man but I never found a construction manual within the Bible how He did it. Even the point with the clay has no confliction with modern science.

I oppose teaching ID, IC or something like that in a science class. For a philosophy class it would be all right. There you can discuss the differences between a scientific theory and beliefs.
