I equate that quest with the fairy tale, Alice in Wonderland when Alice asks the Cat, "Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?"  "That depends a good deal on where you want to get to," said the cat. "I don’t much care where” said Alice "Then it doesn’t matter which way you go," said the cat.
