WE FEEL THAT OUR ACTIONS ARE VOLUNTARY WHEN THEY FOLLOW A DECISION AND INVOLUNTARY WHEN THEY HAPPEN WITHOUT DECISION. BUT IF A DECISION ITSELF WERE VOLUNTARY EVERY DECISION WOULD HAVE TO BE PRECEDED BY A DECISION TO DECIDE AN INFINITE REGRESSION WHICH FORTUNATELY DOES NOT OCCUR. ODDLY ENOUGH, IF WE HAD TO DECIDE TO DECIDE, WE WOULD NOT BE FREE TO DECIDE.
