“Is every death on the cross associated with paying the sins of others?”

“Life into death—life’s other shape, no rupture, only crossing.”

“I have lost friends, some by death… others by sheer inability to cross the street.”

“Those who have crossed
With direct eyes, to death's other Kingdom
Remember us”

“Some people believe that when you die, you cross the River of Death and have to pay the ferryman. People don’t seem to worry about that these days. Perhaps there’s a bridge now.”

“It always falls on the sober to pay for the sins of the drunk.”

“Death is the penalty of sin.”
Mors est poena peccati.

“All my people sing of are memories. And so I will remember this death. It will burden me as it does not burden my fellow students - I must not let that change. I must not become like them. I'll remember that every sin, every death, every sacrifice, is for freedom.”

“The Holy Spirit is the coming of the man Jesus, who is the Son of God, to other men who are not this but with whom He still associates* And the witness of the Holy Spirit is the disclosure to these men, and therefore their discovery, of the fact that because they are associated with Him they can be called what they are certainly not called of themselves, and be what they can certainly never become or be of themselves children of God, children of light who in the midst of death are freed from the fear of death because as sinners they are freed from the curse of sin, and as such messengers to all those who, because they do not see the light, are still in darkness, but are not to remain in this darkness.”

“Death and it's associates, after the initial shock produce callousness.”
