   "Die Freiheit des Einzelnen endet dort,
    wo sie die Freiheit der Anderen einschränkt."
                                      Rosa Luxemburg

   The freedom of an individual ends, as it (the freedom)
   limits the freedom of the others.


[This was one of the former Eastern Germany liberty movements' slogans
 -  and not a communists one]
