It will stretch your vocabulary! It's really amazing how many of Shakespeare's phrases we still use today, like 'more in sorrow than in anger' or 'fit for the gods.'

In high school, I once corrected someone who told us 'No man is an island' was in the Bible. Of course, she was certain I was wrong and quite mad about it! (That one's not Shakespeare or the Bible, it's John Donne, another old English guy.)
