Whewell's 'Middle Templar must dine in Hall the 22nd of June at latest. As for Lincoln's Inn, the grand day of next term is not yet fixed, nor will be so till the last day of this term; so that it is not yet precisely known what will be the latest day upon which it will be necessary to magistrate law. But I suppose it will be about the same time'. Hare's opinion on the possibility of him teaching: 'I should like to be able to find phials that must stand to be filled with what I had to pour into them; even though nine tenths of it should evaporate in the process of infusion. But this is all nonsense; one's business is much more to excite them to infuse; and this is why Plato is worth ten thousand Aristotles & 100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 Locke's'. The true centre of a University education should be philosophy - 'or at least that philosophy & religion are two foci which ought ultimately to coincide'. Hare has heard say that 'several Bishops are to vote for the Catholics this time. If so, Bishops for ever! There is some hope for the Church. It may perhaps sooner or later lose its negativeness & become truly positive & real'.
