It's an idiom. It's disputable whether more idioms in the English language come from Shakespeare or the Bible.
For Evertonians, for example, these are the Holy Trinity.

Oh. LOL. That's a blast from the past. But aren't Brazilians big into soccer, too?
Bazilians are big into football, are they not? An American living in Brazil might refer to the game as soccer; but then an American would not struggle with his English as TGL appears to. If TGL is truly of Latin descent, then he would not have used the word soccer, no?
