Hitch and Shakespeare

Why do people quote Shakespeare? does the quote need to have a thy or a thou to sound artistic even though some Shakesperean quotes are pretty cool like:

All the perfumes of Arabia will not sweeten this little hand. ~ Lady Macbeth, V.i

Which was said when Lady Macbeth got blood on her hand and tried to wash it off. I forgot who she killed or maimed but Lady Mac was pretty vicious.

I just saw Hitch starring Will Smith, and they had some good quotes like:

Life is not the amount of breath you take. It is the moments that take your breath away.
-
There is more to life than watching other people live it.
-
Begin each day as if it was on purpose.
-
Thats what people do, they leap and hope to God they can fly
Because otherwise....
We just drop like a rock....
Wondering the whole way down
"Why in the hell did I jump?"
-


Very deep stuff, and very quotable.
