How many ways to say "Yes": Socrates' Notebook

An excerpt from the notes of Socrates:

How to creatively affirm

1. Yes

2. Quite so

3. Indeed

4. Foresooth

5. Who could object?

6. You are quite right

7. I do not see how it could not be so

8. Only the Gods could object

9.
Without a doubt

10. How could it be otherwise?

11. One would have to be a fool.

12. Obviously so

13. I have no role in this dialogue except saying 'yes', so I will say 'yes'
