Moore on the conception of intrinsic value, and Grice on the conception of value simpliciter

From Robinson (cited by Grice), An Atheist´s Values:

"Moore regarded the question What things are good? as being the question what things possess a certain property. He thought of goodness as a property which certain things possessed. Furthermore, he thought that a thing's possession or non-possession of the property goodness was quite independent of its relations to everything else and intrinsic to itself. (For this see also his essay on The Conception of Intrinsic Value.)"

Only I won´t!
