Trying to use the Find by Content "help" in Find is next-to-useless,
because it doesn't, apparently, allow for finding a phrase rather than
single words. If I type Steve Jobs into the finder it would locate
every file that had either steve (i.e., stevedore) and jobs in it, and
the only way to know if it's the one I want is to open each.

To use find by content, you need to index your files.

That is true, but it still doesn't give you a way to find all files that have both "truth" AND "consequences" in them.
