Cora Diamond: The Realistic Spirit
notes: P27-28
1. "Our practice are exploratory, and it is indeed only through such exploration that we come to see fully what it was that we ourselves thought or wanted to say."
The present situation is not to explain and interpret but to explore and configure.
2. "Justification, in ethics as anywhere else goes on within lives we share with others, but what we make count in that life is not laid down in advance.
The force of what we are able to say depends on its relation to the life of the words we use, the place of those words in our lives; and we may make the words tell by argument, by image, by poetry, by Socratic redistribution, ... by proverbs, by all sorts of old and new things."
