This is a selective list of idioms coined by Shakespeare which are still used in the English language today....some of them are also used in the Italian language.....
All's well that ends well
Brave New World
Cold comfort
Devil incarnate
Fair play
In a pickle
Jealousy is the green-eyed monster
It was Greek to me
Much ado about nothing
Own flesh and blood
Star-crossed lovers
Something in the wind
Spotless reputation
Stony hearted
What's done is done
What's in a name? A rose by any other name would smell as sweet
