My conviction

The law must not be abused as a means of suppression, but must serve as a guarantee of freedom.

«Das Recht ist also der Inbegriff der Bedingungen, unter denen die Willkür des einen mit der Willkür des anderen nach einem allgemeinen Gesetze der Freiheit zusammen vereinigt werden kann.»

(Kant, Metaphysische Anfangsgründe der Rechtslehre, 230)
