Line from the town and the city?

Can anyone tell me the line from Jack Kerouac's The Town and the City
that goes something like this:

Somtimes he would look off into the distance knowing that there was
something that he would never find that he didn't know what it was

Thank you!

Tim

You mean something like this?

"Yet in his inmost soul, like every other man, he brooded and was restless
and dissatisfied and always looked to the future as a challenge and a sad
enigma. He wanted a motorcycle so that he could hurl himself plummeting and
roaring along to anywhere, he wanted the camaraderie of his pals, he wanted
women and more women, plenty of beer and food and money, he wanted
everything that a carefree youngster wants-but at the same time he knew that
there was something else he wanted, that he did not know what it was, and
that he would never get it."
