H. P. Grice: When I visit an unfamiliar university and (as occasionally happens) I am introduced to 'Mr Puddle, our man in Political Philosophy' (or in 'Nineteenth-Century Continental Philosophy or 'Aesthetics', as the case may be), 1 am immediately confident that either Mr Puddle is being under-described and in consequence maligned, or else Mr Puddle is not really good at his stuff. Philosophy, like virtue, is entire. Or, one might even dare to say, there is only one problem in philosophy, namely all of them.
