Tegmen argenteum omnibus nubibus est.
Remarks about the translation
If you were looking for a translation of the proverb, here you have what Latin people would have said:
"Malum quidem nullum esse sine aliquo bono" (There is, to be sure, no evil without something good).

I really like the equivalent (in the remarks field) you have found for the English proverb, dear Alex. I believe it conveys the meaning.

Your literal translation also looks good.
You know, I am never sure which should go first...
Well, let's start the poll.

Dear Aneta!

Yes, it's always difficult to translate and evaluate proverbs...
However I always put the literal translation before the other translation, since in our FAQ we can read "...stick to the source text as closely as possible when translating..."

Let's wait for the poll's results then.
