Because he was a very talented playwright
Also and little known, is that he brought hundreds of new words and phrases to the English language, such as "all the worlds a stage" About 1500 words in all, so too many to relate. If you go to a Shakespearian play today, you will find that the humour still comes through, and a great deal can be placed in todays society...love him...never did at school though.

∙ 14y agoThey retain their immense appeal due to their great endurance, their unbeatable balance of prose and verse, their profound study of human nature, their genius structure and their entertainment value. Shakespeare, even 400 years after his death, is still considered to be the greatest writer in history. Ever.

∙ 12y agoShakespeare had a knack of being able to pack a lot of meaning into a few words, and many of the phrases he used are so pithy and apt that they are frequently quoted, or adapted. So, to use a Shakespeare quotation, or not to use one? That is the question, because a Shakespearean quotation in any other words would not sound as sweet. Quotation, and quotation, and quotation creeps on this petty answer from sentence to sentence. Get the picture?
