famous words by John Donne
<><><>
Correct- and the quote is "tolls for thee"- not three.
"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."This is from Meditation #17 by John Donne and quoted most famously in Hemingway's For Whom the Bell Tolls. Basically this is about the interconnectedness of mankind. When any person dies, it makes me lesser because I am connected to all others. Therefore, one should never wonder for whom the (funeral) bell tolls. Any death is your own death, so the bell is tolling for you.
Answer The phrase became popular after the famous John Donne poem used the lines "ask not for whom the bell tolls, it tolls for thee". The church bell is tolled (rung with soft repeated strokes) at a funeral Answer "For Whom the Bell Tolls", The title of a book by Ernest Hemingway, published in 1940The following is found in a text by John Donne (1623):Now, this bell tolling softly for another, says to me: Thou must die." PERCHANCE he for whom this bell tolls may be so ill, as that he knows not it tolls for him; and perchance I may think myself so much better than I am, as that they who are about me, and see my state, may have caused it to toll for me, and I know not that. so... what exactly is "ask not for whom the bell tolls" supposed to mean? i have a feeling its death/death-roll related- like at a hanging or something- but whats it mean
i don't know but its about three things or people or something.
