It's not.

This quote is not in the book The Outsiders. However, it was said by S. E. Hinton, the author of The Outsiders. The quote can be found as the tagline for the movie version of the book. A tagline is the catchphrase for the movie. It is used for advertising purposes to get people hooked and interested in watching.

Chapter 1 of the book supports this quote when Ponyboy describes the Greasers and the Socs.

I'm not sure if this is the exact words written in the book but I read an article about the book and these words were written by a reviewer.

The phrase," They weren't looking for a fight. They were looking to belong." was supported by the passages found in Chapter 1 page 4 of the book.
