Yes. The man continues looking for a few something.
It may be human essence.

However, as for strong "Hope", there is a case to be realized sometime.
Of course there is often the case that is not so.

It may be often that there is the cause of the human failure in "greed".
Ironically, there is the example very a LOT.
