The English poet John Donne may not have been the first person to consider all humankind as one giant, existential being. But he did it so excellently that here, 400 years later, his words are most suitable for remembering who and what we lost over the year.

“…never send to know for whom the bell tolls; It tolls for thee.” (John Donne, Meditation 17, Devotions upon Emergent Occasions)
