I became famous -- soon enough -- in Classics-L as that Loebly man. For I would quote and quote and quote and quote that Loeb is all you need.
Sometimes I feel that Grice was too much of a classicist when caring to quote _just_ the Greek. My Loeb copies are _always_ to hand (I started collecting after visiting Harvard of course) and they grace (or should I say grice) my Swimming-Pool Library.
Loeberly volumes.
A labour of Loeb, indeed.
Grice would sometimes prefer the Greek-only editions issued by Oxford University Press -- just to tease his students, or tuttees, as he preferred!
