The quotation "Those who do not move, do not notice their chains" is frequently attributed to Rosa Luxemburg.  I am trying to trace the earliest attribution to Luxemburg, or to anyone else if there were other attributions predating the ones to her, and would welcome any citations or pointers to possible occurrences.
