is such a truth for regulating human society,

- Arthur Schopenhauer
Do not do to others what would anger you
if done to you by others.
- Isocrates (Ancient Greek)
Never impose on others what
you would not choose for yourself.
- Confucius (Ancient Chinese)
Be kind whenever possible; and it is always possible.
- Tenzin Gyatso, the 14th Dalai Lama
Religion is no more the parent of morality
than an incubator is the mother of a chicken.
- Lemuel K. Washburn
Know that the true essence of the Golden Rule
is always being compassionate, kind,

Compelling others to behave
as you wish them to behave
in the name of the Golden Rule
is a corruption of a sacred principle.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
