Eliot is right it is called the Golden Rule (or Golden Law as it was called after the 17th century) but it is not attributed only to Confucius but appeared in the philosophies of ancient Babylon, Egypt, Persia, India, Greece, Judea and China. In Christianity it is has been attributed to Jesus. In Judaism the Great Commandment 'Love thy neighbour as yourself' is considered another version of the Golden Rule.
