wherefore did thou language go?

I constantly find myself wishing people still spoke the way they did in William Shakespeare's day. How much more romantic does it sound? 

...Love is not love


Which alters when it alteration finds,
Or Bends with the remover to remove.
O, no! It is an ever-fixed mark,
That looks on tempests and is never shaken.
It is the star to every wandering bark,
whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken.
-- William Shakespeare

And let's talk movies...people just don't express themselves like this anymore..
and it's such a shame. 
Gone With The Wind
Breakfast At Tiffany's
My Fair Lady 
Othello

XX-D
