"...Indeed, I fear that assailing none, I may have offended all. Neutrality may degenerate into an ignominious isolation. An honest and unprejudiced attempt to discern the truth is my sole defence, as the good opinion of the reader has been throughout my chief aspiration, and can be in the end my only support.”
— Winston Churchill
This has always been one of my favorite quotations. Then, as now, objectivity and detachment shouldn't need to be justified!
