  2. Correction:

    There are two expressions-

    All that glisters is NOT gold

    From Shakespeare's Merchant of Venice)

    All that glisters is not gold;
    Often have you heard that told:
    Many a man his life hath sold
    But my outside to behold:
    Gilded tombs do worms enfold.
    Had you been as wise as bold,
    Young in limbs, in judgement old
    Your answer had not been inscroll'd
    Fare you well, your suit is cold.

    and

    All that glitters IS gold

    (from Led Zep's Stairway to Heaven)
