Valuing the Value-less
"At the intellectual level, this fissure expresses itself in the search for 'value-free' facts, and for a science of human behavior that shall be 'objective' in the sense that no value judgments are allowed to have a place in its operations. ... An ideal that one might define paradoxically by saing that the only really valuable things are value-free facts - has enormous power in the public life of modern societies."
