What does the last part of the following quote mean 'No man is an island unto himself every man is a part of the whole Therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls it tolls for thee'?

"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.
