I did that short course RS in year 10, but not at GCSE. I remember that my favourite quote was 'love thy neighbour'. It can be applied to so much - same sex marriage and relationships, anti-war, charity, really you could apply it to anything.

for christianity:
no one gets to the father except through me
for god so loved the world that he gave his only son
anyone who believes in me and is baptised will be saved
love your enemy and pray for those who persecute you
whatever you do for the least of these brothers of mine you also do for me

for islam:
there is no god but god and muhammad is his messenger
for you lord does not deal unjustly with anyone
nothing will happen except what allah has decreed for us
in him you have an excellent example (muhammad)
