Etymology[edit]

Derived from 역지즉개연 (易地則皆然, yeog-ji-jeug-gae-yeon), literally, "varying instances lead all sages to a stance," idiomatically, "great minds think alike," or figuratively, "all roads lead to Rome," as mentioned in Mencius (孟子, 맹자, c. 4th century BCE), a Confucian classic and one of the Four Books.

Proverb[edit]

역지사지 (yeokjisaji) (易地思之, yeog-ji-sa-ji)

  1. (golden rule: positive form of moral reciprocity): do unto others as you would have them do unto you; one should treat others as one would like others to treat oneself.
    (Matthew 7:12): "all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them"
    (Luke 6:31): "as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise"
    (Global Ethic): "We must treat others as we wish others to treat us." [1]
  2. (silver rule: negative form of moral reciprocity): don't do unto others what you wouldn't have them do unto you; one should not treat others as one would not like to be treated.
    (Confucius): "What one wouldn't like shouldn't be done to the other." (己所不欲 勿施於人[2]) (Wiktionary translation)
