: Hi Everyone, : I'm working on a English paper and just need some definitions of the phrase "money makes the world go round" what different interpetations/meanings people have for this particular phrase......any at all. What ever help anyone could give would be really appreciated. LOVE MAKES THE WORLD GO ROUND - "The major motivation for all human activity is the search for love. The words are found in an anonymous French song, 'C'est l'amour, l'amour, l'amour, Que fait le monde A la ronde.' First cited in 'David' (1656). Recorded in Lewis Carroll's 'Alice in Wonderland' (1865)." From "Random House Dictionary of Popular Proverbs and Sayings" by Gregory Y. Titelman (Random House, New York, 1996). Page 223. A variation is used in a song in the musical Cabaret (movie version,1972):
Money makes the world go around
The world go around
The world go around
Money makes the world go around
It makes the world go 'round.
