One reply:

Another reply, saying the same thing:

> C-g will quit search and return point to where you started

But C-g takes you back to the beginning only if you never exited Isearch (e.g.
with RET).

I thought the OP meant that he exited search and later wanted to get back to the
search start. For that, just use `C-x C-x'.
