    The corollary to your "observation" is then what do we need you for?  And we've long known the answer to that question . . .

    The original poem is "No MAN is an Island" by John Donne c. 1624:

    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 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.

    Also the subject of many musical settings such as this:

    Meh, I'm sure you could do without all the orhers, but not without ME. I bet it would last about a day or two, then you'd start missing me so much that the tears would flow like a river. You and I go way back.
