“Our best moral stories don’t tell us what is right or wrong in every situation, but they show us what one character did in one situation at one time. Readers, viewers, and listeners are supposed to extrapolate the moral meaning from the story. We’re not supposed to have it handed to us.”

― Not Your Mother's Morals: How the New Sincerity is Changing Pop Culture for the Better

This New Sincerity has become the vehicle for a resurgence in moral storytelling in popular culture.”
