"Do not do unto others as you..." - Quote by George Bernard Shaw
Do not do unto others as you expect they should do unto you. Their tastes may not be the same.

“Men get tired of everything, of heaven no less than of hell; and that all history is nothing but a record of the oscillations of the world between these two extremes. An epoch is but a swing of the pendulum; and each generation thinks the world is progressing because it is always moving.”
“I like a bit of mongrel myself, whether it's a man or a dog.”
“The harder I work the more I live.”

“To know the pain of too much tenderness”
“As a writer, you should not judge, you should understand.”
“I love boxing and it did a lot for me. But sometimes it made me think how savage human beings could be to each other. That wasn't the kind of boxer I wanted to be. My strategy was to be as scientific as I could when I fought. I didn't want to be seriously hurt, and I didn't want to do that to anybody else either.”

“A superior man in dealing with the world is not for anything or against anything. He follows righteousness as the standard.”
“Behave when away from home as though you were in the presence of an honored guest. Employ the people as though you were assisting at an important sacrifice. Do not do to others what you would not like yourself. Then there will be no feelings of opposition to you, whether it is the affairs of a state that you are handling or the affairs of a family.”
“In a living society every day is a day of judgment; and its recognition as such is not the end of all things but the beginning ofa real civilization.”
