wiki *snort* read deeper:

   "The utility of a thing makes it a use value. But this utility
    is not a thing of air. Being limited by the physical properties
    of the commodity, it has no existence apart from that commodity."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Use_value


In any case:

   "The phantoms formed in the human brain are also, necessarily,
    sublimates of their material life process, which is empirically
    verifiable and bound to material premises. Morality, religion,
    metaphysics, all the rest of ideology and their corresponding
    forms of consciousness, thus no longer retain the semblance of
    independence. They have no history, no development; but men,
    developing their material production and their material intercourse,
    alter, along with this, their real existence, their thinking, and the
    products of their thinking. Life is not determined by consciousness,
    but consciousness by life."

Your denial of value outside of the material is Marxist through and through.
