A Humanistic Code of Ethics

Do no harm to the earth, she is your mother.
Being is more important than having.
Never promote yourself at another’s expense.
Hold life sacred; treat it with reverence.
Allow each person the dignity of his or her labor.

Open your home to the wayfarer.
Be ready to receive your deepest dreams;
Sometimes they are the speech of the unblighted conscience.
Always make restitutions to the ones you have harmed.
Never think less of yourself than you are.
Never think that you are more than another.

This piece reflects the code for members of the
National Association of Realtors.
