The golden rule and the Havamal are traditionally what I live by.
For the current political climate, I've also added:

Butterfly in the sky, I can go twice as high.

Take a look, it's in a book,

A Reading Rainbow!

I can go anywhere.

Friends to know, and ways to grow.

A Reading Rainbow!

I can be anything.

Take a look, it's in a book.

A Reading Rainbow.
