Once someone asked Jesus, “How are you able to walk on water?”
   Jesus replied, “With certainty.”
Then someone said, “But we also have certainty!”
   Jesus then asked them, “Are stone, clay, and gold equal in your eyes?”
They replied, “Certainly not!”
   Jesus responded, “They are in mine.” (Ahmad)

Jesus said, “You will never obtain what you desire except through patience with what you despise.” (Ghazali)

Jesus, the son of Mary said, “God has given me the power to give life to the dead, sight to the blind, sound to the deaf; but He did not give me the power to heal the fool of his foolishness.” (Razi)
