The story behind the quote: This week’s quote comes from the 1996 dark comedy crime film, Fargo. The film is set in the titular town/city where a man plans to have his wife kidnapped in order to collect the ransom money himself. However, their plans go astray and the kidnapping leads to a couple of murders. This leads Sherriff Marge Gunderston (played by Frances McDormand) to start investigating while the man who instigated the kidnapping to still continue with his plan.
The quote comes very near the end of the film. Marge has managed to arrest one of the kidnappers as the other had already been killed during the course of the film. As he drives him back to town to be sent to prison, Marge comments on the events and the needless deaths that have happened during the course of the crime. This is when she delivers the quote.
Geek wisdom: Money may is important. But it’s not the be all and end all of everything. There are a lot of things more important in life than just trying to become rich. Life has so much more to offer than just that.
