Line 13:
The word ''value'' is ambiguous in that it is both a [[verb]] and a [[noun]], as well as denoting both a criterion of judgment itself and the result of applying a criterion.<ref>{{cite book|last=Dewey|first=John|url=https://archive.org/details/in.ernet.dli.2015.204950|title=Theory of Valuation|publisher=University of Chicago Press|year=1939|pages=[https://archive.org/details/in.ernet.dli.2015.204950/page/n13 1]–6}}</ref><ref name="Tiles">{{cite book|last1=Tiles|first1=Mary|title=Living in a Technological Culture|last2=Oberdiek|first2=Hans|publisher=Routledge|year=1995}}</ref>{{rp|37–44}} To reduce ambiguity, throughout this article the noun ''value'' names a criterion of judgment, as opposed to ''valuation'' which is an object that is judged valuable. The [[plural]] ''values'' identifies collections of valuations, without identifying the criterion applied.
== Immanuel Kant ==
Immanuel Kant is famously quoted as saying:<blockquote>So act as to treat humanity, whether in thine own person or in that of any other, in every case as an end withal, never as means only. <ref>{{Cite web |last=Kant |first=Immanuel |date=1785 |title=Fundamental Principles of the Metaphysic Of Morals |url=https://www.gutenberg.org/files/5682/5682-h/5682-h.htm |url-status=live |access-date=2024-12-16 |website=www.gutenberg.org}}</ref></blockquote>Here, Kant considers both instrumental and intrinsic value, although not calling them by those names.
