“There is nothing like looking, if you want to find something”

“There is nothing like looking, if you want to find something,” says Thorin Oakenshield in J.R.R. Tolkien’s beloved fantasy novel The Hobbit.
“You certainly usually find something, if you look, but it is not always quite the something you were after.”

~ J. R. R. Tolkien
