Nope, because that assumes I have permission to quote ahead of time and I'd have an archive in my sent mail (and trash items) for a period of time that you didn't explicitly allow. Chicken and the egg. You should make a form available for printing and mailing back to you on your website to explicitly allow people to sign (in the presence of a witness) and mail in to ask for permission on a per-mail basis so as to allow proper archiving in my sent and trash items as well as quoting relevant materials. Otherwise, I'm screwed legally because I'd be violating your IP rights and copyright.
