Es ist der Vorzug und das Wesen der Starken, dass sie die grossen Entscheidungsfragen stellen
und zu ihnen klar Stellung nehmen können. Die Schwachen müssen sich immer zwischen
Alternativen entscheiden, die nicht die ihren sind.
It is the nature, and the advantage, of strong people that they can bring out the crucial questions
and form a clear opinion about them. The weak always have to decide between alternatives that
are not their own.

Jesus nur ‘für andere da ist.’...Gott in Menschengestalt! ...nicht die griechische Gott-
Menschgestalt des ‘Menschen an sich’, sondern ‘der Mensch für andere’, darum der Gekreuzigte.
Jesus is there only for others.... God in human form! not...in the Greek divine-human form of
‘man in himself’, but ‘the man for others’, and therefore the crucified.
