The origin of the proverb "all that glitters is not gold" can be traced to William Shakespeare's play 'The Merchant of Venice,' written in 1596. Shakespeare used this phrase to express the idea that outward appearances can be deceiving, and that things that seem valuable or attractive on the surface may not be as they appear. The proverb has since become a widely used reminder that not everything that looks good is necessarily valuable or genuine, encouraging people to look beyond external appearances before making judgments.
