So ultimately I am looking for a story that has some value and is important and is entertaining.
From you we have learned what we, at least, value, to separate Church and State; and from you we gather inspiration at all times in our devotion to learning, to religious liberty, and to individual and National freedom.
My reasons for declaring a sexual preference had to do less with the pursuit of personal freedom than with the lust for pure shock value.
Evil, by definition, is that which endangers the good, and the good is what we perceive as a value.
I am learning to forgive my inner geek, and even value him as a free man.
I will place no value on anything I have or may possess except in relation to the kingdom of Christ.

Here in the big city people spend their time thinking about work and about money; they don't give some value to friendships and it can be depressing.
The art of advertisement, after the American manner, has introduced into all our life such a lavish use of superlatives, that no standard of value whatever is intact.

This does not mean that every copyright must prove its value initially. That would be a far too cumbersome system of control. But it does mean that every system or category of copyright or patent should prove its worth.
Of all the creative work produced by humans anywhere, a tiny fraction has continuing commercial value. For that tiny fraction, the copyright is a crucially important legal device.
In horror, character development is often pushed aside in favor of the shock value. The best genre movies to me are movies like The Shining. You had a connection to the characters in that film.
