Asking permission...

Asking permission from someone gives a sense of authority and importance to someone.

If you asks little children permission before you play with their toys, look at their facial expressions, you can tell they feel you give them a sense of importance and ownership. More often than not they reply positively. It is the same with adults. Inform someone or ask permission before you cross over into their space/authority.

I'll get back to you later... (Or, stay silent)

Asked a question or situation, and you are not ready to respond? Maybe you are in a bad mood, busy, in a tight situation or simply want to deflect the attention from yourself. Say, "I will get back to you later" or "Can I get back to you later" Or, stay silent. 

It is entirely up to you if or when you get back to the person. Sometimes, the person might forget. Sometimes, when the heat of the situation has reduced, your answer would not be put in a tight spotlight anymore. It may give you more rest and focus later to reply in a more meaningful way in the time of your choosing or better timing.
