Boy do I feel stupid, I thought the quote was from Hemingway.

It wasn't Jesus. It was the poet John Donne
No man is an island, entire of itself ... 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, 1624

Jesus didn't say that, John Donne did.
he said: "every man's death diminishes me because i am involved in mankind and therefore do not send to know for whom the bell tolls, it tolls for thee."

As most seem to know it was JD and not JC.
To answer: It seems it tolls for thee.
Did you really think you could get away with this BS?

I don't know which book you've been reading, but that's not in the bible.
