"Do unto others as you would have others do unto you". You just can't go wrong with the Golden Rule. Besides, if every single person followed it, there'd be world peace and no hunger, I'd bet on it.
I also think a lot of the fist verse of the Serenity Prayer. I think it's useful for everyone, not just people in recovery. Not to mention it has a great story behind it. The author's original version goes like this:
God, give us grace to accept with serenity the things that cannot be changed, Courage to change the things which should be changed, and the Wisdom to distinguish the one from the other.
