Like all the OP's ones.

Anyone who's read David Gemmell's "Druss" books will surely know about his 'Code of Iron'.
I've recited it to my son a few times (although very slightly edited).

And for those that havn't...
“Never violate a woman, nor harm a child. Do not lie, cheat or steal. These things are for lesser men. Protect the weak against the evil strong. And never allow thoughts of gain to lead you into the pursuit of evil. Never back away from an enemy. Either fight or surrender. It is not enough to say I will not be evil. Evil must be fought wherever it is found.”
-- The Iron Code

Others I have taken to heart...

"I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.

And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
Only I will remain. "

-- Litany against Fear from the Bene Gesserit rite

"Thou Shalt Not Get Caught"

-- The 11th Commandment

"Therefore let us no longer judge one another; but, instead of that, you should come to this judgement--that we must not put a stumbling-block in our brother's path, nor anything to trip him up."

-- Romans 14:13

 

[Auraomega]

Long one:

"There is nothing to fear,
If agression is the result of fear,
The fear is the fear of agression.
So if you are afraid of the agressor
You are afraid of a person which is afraid of you,
A person ruled by it's fears.
And why should you be afraid of someone,
Who is behaving like a small child in the darkness?"

 

[div0]

"Treat others as you would have them treat you"

Like all the OP's ones.
My best friend is a bugger for one-liners, mainly from films i guess, but one of his faves is:
"Get knocked down 7 times, get up 8!"......never really understood it myself.

As in, it doesn't matter how many times you get knocked down, as long as you get up once more. I like it, it's a good quote.
