'yes, yes'
"...to say yes is to bind oneself to the future, to further confirmation in a second yes, which promises to keep the memory of the first yes and confirm it, to repeat it. When we say yes, we do not know yet if we have said yes" (Caputo, John D. The Prayers and Tears of Jacques Derrida: Religion without Religion, 65).
"A yes always renders thanks to this danger [the 'menace of forgetting']...." (Derrida, Jacques. A Number of Yes, 132-33).
