They're over? Somebody should'a toll me!

I think he had too much fun in the 70's.

Have you been welding galvanized pipe?

The bell doth toll for him that thinks it doth; and though

it intermit
again, yet from that minute that this occasion wrought

upon him, he is
united to God . . .
Who casts not up his eye to the sun when it rises? but who

takes off his eye
from a comet when that breaks out? Who bends not his ear

to any bell which
upon any occasion rings? but who can remove it from that

bell which is
passing a piece of himself out of this world? 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 friend's or of thine

own we 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.
