Italian term or phrase: la speranza è nell' opera
This is a quotation by Vincenzo Cardarelli. It ends an article about the effect of the global economic crisis on the jewellery sector, in which the author reaches the conclusion that the future of Italian jewellery worldwide(or any sector I suppose) depends on high standards of craftsmanship and quality.
It's the word opera that is causing problems here. I could say "Hope lies in the work", but "the work" sounds a little off imo. Any suggestions?
