free will

It was the only way she had to exercise her free-will in its desperate struggle with necessity.

Philosophy tells us that free-will is an illusion, and then boasts of the boldness of such a declaration.

No, we had roamed about and had come back to our dear friends of our own free-will, feeling there was no place like home!

Closely connected with these were predestination and grace, and then "fixed fate, free-will, foreknowledge absolute."

All virtue consists in the free-will, and hence virtue is called an elective or voluntary habit.
