Context: Values are social norms — they're personal, emotional, subjective, and arguable. All of us have values. Even criminals have values. The question you must ask yourself is, Are your values based upon principles? In the last analysis, principles are natural laws — they're impersonal, factual, objective and self-evident. Consequences are governed by principles and behavior is governed by values; therefore, value principles!
Robert Louis Stevenson book Across the Plains

Context: We should wipe two words from our vocabulary: gratitude and charity. In real life, help is given out of friendship, or it is not valued; it is received from the hand of friendship, or it is resented.
“If you don't stick to your values when they're being tested, they're not values: they're hobbies.”
Jon Stewart (1962) American political satirist, writer, television host, actor, media critic and stand-up comedian
