Шекспира цитирају, парафразирају, фризирају и моделирају, али суштина је да у сваком свом комаду и сонету говори о свету и животу, о систему и онима који се боре против система, о љубави и страдању, патњи и радости....свему што је било и биће дело човека. Зато је вечан и зато се његови стихови могу препознати и употребити и данас. Користили су их и модерни музичари...
