Otra Margarita
No Man is an Island
No man is an island, entire of itself
every man is a piece of the continent,
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 friends
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.

and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls;
it tolls for thee.
