In the Jewish tradition, the sage Hillel was asked to summarize the Jewish Bible while standing on one foot! He did, and quoted: don't do anything to others you wouldn't want done to you. A slight flip, but close.
He also famously said:
If I am not for myself, who is with me?
If I am not for others, who am I?
If not now, when?
