John Donne Frases famosas
“Nenhuma beleza primaveril ou de verão tem tanta graça como vi em uma face outonal.”
No spring, nor summer beauty hath such grace As I have seen in one autumnal face
"The Autummal" in "Poems of John Donne", Volume 1 - Página 117, John Donne - Lawrence & Bullen, 1896
Variante: Ninguém é uma ilha em si mesmo. Cada um é uma porção do continente, uma parte do oceano.
Like pictures, or like books' gay coverings made for laymen, are all women thus array'd themselves are only mystic books, which we —whom their imputed grace will dignify — must see reveal'd.

Devotions upon Emergent Occasions
Modern version: 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 friends or of thine own were; 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.
Meditation 17. This was the source for the title of Ernest Hemingway's novel.
