Noted & Quoted: Free Will?

David Hume (Scottish philosopher, 1711-1776):
  • Either our actions are determined, in which case we are not responsible for them; or they are the result of random events, in which case we are not responsible for them.

Isaac Bashevis Singer (Author, 1902-1991):

  • We must believe in free will. We've got no choice.
