Sure, the game of différance [1] can be played till the end of the universe. Socrates is well known as an aporia [2] lover, but at the end of the day even he had to take an executive decision, leave the agora, and go home to the nagging wife [3]. Ancient Greek misogyny aside, Xanthippe can be interpreted as Socrates' aporia solver, in the same manner his 'daemon' [4] would only tell him "No", Xanthippe would tell him "Yes".
