Francesco CabrasQuotes

Jesus: [struggles to speak] I... thirst.

Mary: [looks at Jesus with tears in her eyes] Flesh of my flesh, heart of my heart. My son, let me die with you.

Jesus: [to Mary; turns to John; John tearfully nods, assuring him his mother will be safe] Mother... Behold... your son! Son, behold... your mother!

Gesmas: [noticing everyone has gone and he glares at Jesus] There is no one left! They have abandoned you, Jesus!

Jesus: [with all his strength; turns to his friends and mother below him, softly; turns his head to the sky; Jesus dies] ELOI! ELOI! Lama Sabacthani! It is finished. Father... Into your hands... I give you... my spirit...

Abenader: Cassius! Come on, do it!

Cassius: [dropping his hammer] He's dead!

Abenader: [tosses his spear to him] Make sure!

Gesmas: [groans in pain; the crowd laughs and the guards insult Jesus, gesturing him to come down] If you are the son of God, why can't you save yourself? Prove to us that you are who you say you are!

Caiaphas: [approaches Jesus; to the crowd] You said you would destroy the temple and rebuild it in three days, but look at you. If he is indeed the Messiah, I say he should come down from that cross, so that we may see and believe him!

Jesus: [sobbing and in pain, he looks up at the sky to pray] Father... forgive them, for... they know not what they do.

Dismas: [to Caiaphas; Caiaphas ignores him and leaves. Dismas then turns to Gesmas; to Jesus, sobbing] Listen, he's praying for you! We deserve this, Gesmas! He does not! My lord, I have sinned and I'm being punished justly. All that I ask of you is that you remember me when you enter your kingdom.

Jesus: [smiles weakly] Amen, I say to you... on this day... you will join me... in paradise...
