John Donne

+ No man is an island, entire of itself. Each is a piece of the continent, a part of the main.   If a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less. As well as if a promontory were. As well as if a manor of thine own or of thine friend's were. Each man's death diminishes me, for I am involved in mankind. Therefore, send not to know For whom the bell tolls, It tolls for thee.

John Donne
