R. M. Hare (1919-2002) on the Sources of Disagreement
Two people who are using the word ‘ought’ in the same way may yet disagree about what ought to be done in a certain situation, either because they differ about the facts, or because one or other of them lacks imagination, or because their different inclinations make one reject some singular prescription which the other can accept.
(R. M. Hare, Freedom and Reason [Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1963], 97)
