Is there someone who can tell me the reference for the line, "there had to be someone who said yes". I know it is from a poem, but I don't know what or where or whom. Karen Bueno
Nikos Kazantzakis, but don’t remember where except it is in Saviors of God.

At least a similar line from Markings: I don't know Who — or what — put the question, I don't know when it was put. I don't even remember answering. But at some moment I did answer Yes to Someone — or Something — and from that hour I was certain that existence is meaningful and that, therefore, my life, in self-surrender, had a goal.
