Okay chicos. So I found this passage, and although it's a bit traditional and spiritual, I couldn't help but think about us. Substitute "Europe" with "Queens/NY/The Americas/The World/Etc."
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.
-John Donne
