Wanderer above the Sea of Fog, by Caspar David Friedrich
John Donne

No man is an island

No man is an island,
Entire of itself;
Every man 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 thy friend’s
Or of thine own were.
 
Any man’s death diminishes me,
Because I am involved in mankind.
And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls;
It tolls for thee.

Meditation XVII, 1624
