Full view of the inscription on a mausoleum in Pinelawn Memorial Park, Farmingdale, Long Island, New York.

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 wer, as well as if a manor of they 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 tolss; it tolls for thee.
