A scene from Yes Man 2008
Carl

I need you to remove the covenant.

Terrence

There is no covenant, there never was, I was just riffing.

Carl

Riffing?

Terrence

Well, I had to say something — you were being difficult, embarrassing me in front of my crowd.

Carl

So that little "Yes" thing is all bullshit?

Terrence

No — you just don't know how to use it, that's all.

Carl

Yeah I do — say "yes" to everything — real tough to grasp.
Terrence [exasperated]: No, that's not the point. Well, maybe at first it is, but that's just to open you up to it — to get you started. Then you're saying yes not because you have to, not because a covenant tells you to, but because you know in your heart that you want to.

Carl

Yah. You're right. That makes perfect sense.
