  For Whom the Bell Tolls
This phrase basically means 'for whom the bell rings' but generally in a church because the word 'toll' implies that the bell is large and making a louder sound than a smaller bell ringing.
It tolls for thee." And it was a meditation on death.

 For whom the Bell Tolls John Donne
As therefore the bell that rings to a sermon calls not upon the preacher only, but upon the congregation to come, so this bell calls us all; but how much more me, who am brought so near the door by this sickness.

 UFOs - For Whom the Bell Tolls
Art Bell is a late-night radio talk show host who broadcasts a show about various paranormal subjects ranging from alien abductions to crop circles (two of my own favorite subjects of conversation).
Recently, Bell opened a phone line for people working for Area 51 so they could call him and "spill the beans." This is a catch-22 situation for Bell, though, for he would inherently disbelieve an alleged Area-51 worker who told Bell that nothing extraterrestrial was located at the Groom Lake facility.
Unaware of these events, Bell continued talking to the caller for another minute during the outage until he heard a scream and the phone went dead.
