A mentality (not) for the Times

Just did today's Times crossword in the Oz.
One clue stood out as typical of the kind of "popular" memory the setters and solvers of this puzzle have.
I'll just repeat it here, see how you go, and chuck in the answer tomorrow between tutorials in Useless Ideas 100.

Philosopher as opener of conversation (6)

Slight help: the second letter is "O".
