Judaism: What is hateful to you, do not to your fellowmen. That is the entire Law; all the rest is commentary. (Talmud, Shabbat, 31a)
Brahmanism: This is the sum of duty; do naught unto others which would cause you pain if done to you. (Mahabharata, 5, 1517)
Buddhism: Hurt not others in ways that you yourself would find hurtful. (Udana-Varga, 5, 18)
Confucianism: Surely it is the maxim of loving-kindness: Do not unto others that you would not have them do unto you. (Analects, 15, 23)
Taoism: Regard you neighbor's gain as your own gain and your neighbor's loss as your own loss. (T'ai Shang Kan Ying P'ien)
Zoroastrianism: That nature alone is good which refrains from doing unto another whatsoever is not good for itself. (Dadistan-i-dinik, 94, 5)
Islam: No one of you is a believer until he desires for his brother that which he desires for himself. (Sunnah)

Arthur Hugh Clough. 1819–1861
Say not the Struggle Naught availeth
SAY not the struggle naught availeth,
The labour and the wounds are vain,
The enemy faints not, nor faileth,
And as things have been they remain.
If hopes were dupes, fears may be liars;
It may be, in yon smoke conceal'd,
Your comrades chase e'en now the fliers,
And, but for you, possess the field.
For while the tired waves, vainly breaking,
Seem here no painful inch to gain,
Far back, through creeks and inlets making,
Comes silent, flooding in, the main.
And not by eastern windows only,
When daylight comes, comes in the light;
In front the sun climbs slow, how slowly!
But westward, look, the land is bright!
One of my favourites....it was on Endeavour on Sunday but I learned it in school.
