Summary

This quote suggests that in order to offer an unbiased opinion, one must be disinterested in the subject matter. However, it argues that an unbiased opinion lacks value because it reflects a lack of deep engagement or personal investment.

Hence, an unbiassed opinion is portrayed as ultimately superficial and insignificant.
