--- H. P. Grice on R. M. Hare.

Hare was Grice's favourite moral philosopher. They belonged to the same play group!

Grice was fascinated by Hare's fascination with words, and vice versa.

Hare possibly outdid Grice here.

There's Hare's phrastic, and Hare's neustic, and Hare's tropic, and Hare's clistic.
