She never gave a speech specifically around that topic, but she may have used the words on occasion, because the golden rule ("You should treat others as you would want to be treated by others yourself") is a very old saying, independently formulated in ancient China by Confucius, in ancient Egypt and ancient Rome, just to name a few.
