John Donne: "No man is an island,
Entire of itself,
Every man is a piece of the continent,
A part of the main."

But each man kills the one he loves
let this be heard
some do it with a kind word
some do it with a sword.

I think I missed a word or two.
He wrote that when he was in reading gaol for being a homosexual for goodness sake. I've loved it since I was at school. I wrote some of it out in shorthand for the prince Philip thing, if you remember.

The quote under my user name, too.
