Is this a good sentence?
He also begins contemplating the idea of mortality, that no matter how great you are, we all end up the same: “retuneth to dust”.

This is a sentence for my essay on Hamlet. I was just wondering if I'm using proper punctuation and if there's any other way I should arrange it.

GRAMMAR:
1. You should change the pronouns you/we so that they are the same. you/you or we/we
2. I'm not sure about the "returneth." I believe it's the old spelling for "returns," and the word "returns" doesn't fit here. Since you're quoting from the play, you might change it to fit like this:
...we all end up the same: “[returning] to dust”.
The square brackets indicate that you are altering the quote yourself for grammatical reasons.

......idea of mortality. No matter....up the same, as illustrated by the quote, "returneth to dust".
