Herbert Paul Grice (1913 - 1988), often writing under the name Paul Grice, was a philosopher remembered mainly for his substantial contribution to the study of meaning within language, particularly his maxims of conversation. Grice's work is one of the foundations of the modern study of pragmatics. Many of his essays/papers were published in the book Studies in the Way of Words (1989).

I was once told that Grice died while having sex in the shower. Is there any reason to believe that this is actually true?
