This Business of Living (1935-1950)
The Washington Institute's Eighth Annual Turgut Ozal Memorial Lecture. (June 19, 2006) http://www.defenselink.mil/transcripts/transcript.aspx?transcriptid=25
From remarks by United States Under Secretary of Defense for Policy, Ambassador Eric S. Edelman at The Washington Institute's Eighth Annual Turgut Ozal Memorial Lecture.
“From every joy and pain a hope leaps out eternally to escape this pain and to widen joy.”
The Saviors of God (1923)
Context: From every joy and pain a hope leaps out eternally to escape this pain and to widen joy.
And again the ascent begins — which is pain — and joy is reborn and new hope springs up once more. The circle never closes. It is not a circle, but a spiral which ascends eternally, ever widening, enfolding and unfolding the triune struggle.

Context: Human beings can reach such desperate solitude that they may cross a boundary beyond which words cannot serve, and at such moments there is nothing left for them but to bark.
Original: (fr) Mais la joie n'a rien au sujet de quoi elle puisse être joyeuse. Loin de venir après la venue de l'être et de s'émerveiller devant lui, elle lui est consubstantielle, le fonde et le constitue.
