Reading Antifragile by Nassim Taleb was eye-opening for me. I turn to the concepts of the book whenever I feel unsure about a decision or opinion.

The German Grundgesetz if that makes any sense.

I try to find guidance on how to interact with the system, and how to interpret others actions from a very neutral but very comprehensive, guide to practical morality which is the GG for me.

Also I just love Art1 " Die würde des Menschen ist unantastbar"

Obviously it has some flaws, but if you interpret it enough it gives a good baseline for interpersonal stuff. Also it is the base law in Germany so practical value can also exist.
