Talk:G. E. M. Anscombe

For possible sourcing and inclusion:

According to a possibly apocry­phal tale, Anscombe once said to A. J. Ayer: “If you didn’t talk so quickly, people wouldn’t think you were so clever”; to which Ayer replied: “If you didn’t talk so slowly, people wouldn’t think you were so profound.”
