He watched his feet, the only things that were keeping him from finding out if there really was a Kingdom of Heaven or not.

About This Quote

It was said that Jesus Christ watched his feet. One could assume he was thinking about how tired he felt. However, the idea of him watching his feet implies that he was actually trying to watch his path. He could have been staring at the sky or the sand, but he was looking at his steps because he knew they were the only thing keeping him from finding out if there really was a Kingdom of Heaven or not.
