Immanuel Kant  - ''  do all that you can apply to yourself  as Universal Law ''
you can not love  , if you do not love yourself   ;  you can not do anything to others  that  you do not like yourself   ;   if you are not tolerant  you can not tolerate others , the same way if you can not forgive yourself you can not forgive others . . in the spirit you can serve others and make sacrifices for others if you can serve and sacrifice for self .  MK  Gandhi is of the same view -  ''The Roots of Violence are  -- Wealth without work, Pleasure without conscience, Knowledge without character, Commerce without morality, Science without humanity, Worship without sacrifice, Politics without principles.
Consider the following. We humans are social beings. We come into the world as the result of others' actions. We survive here in dependence on others. Whether we like it or not, there is hardly a moment of our lives when we do not benefit from others' activities. For this reason it is hardly surprising that most of our happiness arises in the context of our relationships with others.  ( H H Dalai Lama )
  '' Do no harm to the earth, she is your mother.
Being is more important than having.
Never promote yourself at another's expense.
Hold life sacred; treat it with reverence.
Allow each person the dignity of his or her labor.
Open your home to the wayfarer.
Be ready to receive your deepest dreams;
sometimes they are the speech of unblighted conscience.
Always make restitutions to the ones you have harmed.
Never think less of yourself than you are.
Never think that you are more than another.'' -- A.Dobrin
''  Do all the good you can,
By all the means you can,
In all the ways you can,
In all the places you can,
At all the times you can,
To all the people you can,
As long as ever you can.''      -- (J.Wesley)
