"Tell me about stagecoaches
There is blood under all the words
It may be an unexpected day today
There is blood under all the words...''

Derrida also examined the validity of the verb to forgive from this perspective. I remembered this poem directly while reading the book. Because Derrida deals with our responsibility to someone else, to the other and to the other through the act of forgiveness.

There are two basic axes in Derrida's philosophy; one of them is the principle of "ethics" October, the other is "what is political". The biggest factor of the common components of their ethical and political clusters is the act of forgiveness. Because while ethical philosophy was directly interested in forgiveness, it had to make forgiveness a policy because the political one was political. Since the thought that stands out in the act of forgiveness is a new way of thinking (that is, empathy) based on the position and acceptance of another person, and since it is an important factor in the realization of justice, we can say that he felt the need to write about the philosophical depth of this actionism. Likewise, the activism that seems to be this simple but opens the door to a completely different universe is the main factor determining both ethics and political attitude today as well...
The book puts a deep philosophy in front of us by referring to forgiveness through these two basic concepts and then to the realization of justice. In other words, in short, he is processing the desire for his becoming, which is on the axis of the possibility and impossibility of a "maybe". It is not considered possible if it is pleasant, possible, impossible, but what will happen in the future, what is desired to happen, has become possible because it is impossible. That is why justice will come only by being born out of impossibility...
