    Hello there,

    I was asked today about some quote that's apparently at Dublin Airport around gates B or C arrivals. It goes somehow like this: "went abroad to search for wonders"..."when i came back i found all the wonders waitin for me".

    I was asked for the full text and who it is by. I cannot find it online. Does anyone know it??

    Thanks! :)

    It wouldn't be "A man travels the world over in search of what he needs and returns home to find it", would it? George Moore wrote it, he was an Irish novelist

    No but I presume it's based on that. The OP has it almost right. Not sure what the exact words are though
