    Sure.  Namely it is forbidden by default.  You can't quote any creative
    content

Please don't call works "content" -- that term disparages the works
themselves.  See http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/words-to-avoid.html.

            that would suffice for not needing to get access the original.
    Because then you are providing value only the copyright holder is
    permitted to provide.

I think you are talking about the standards of fair use,
and I think you have interpreted them in a manner that is
overly limited.
