Subject:Needs Arabic of a Hadith in English

For a new Humanities building at our University, they are putting up
glass panels with quotations dealing with knowledge and light from
various cultural traditions.  Our department includes Arabic, Japanese,
Chinese, Korean and Hebrew, so our panel will be full of strange and
wonderful scripts.  Anyway, we gave them a bunch of quotes from the
Quran and Hadith, and they choose some.  The Quran ones I was able to
find, but the Hadith (which came out of a book of nice Hadith in
English) I was not able to find.  In other words, I have the English,
but even when searching for likely phrases in the online Hadith indexes
I couldn't find the Arabic version.  Does anyone know, off the top of
his/her head, what the Arabic for the following Hadith is:

"Whoever goes forth in search of knowledge is in the path of God until
he returns."

Thanks!
Dil
