one would never guess that humans are beings of free will.

Observe the morning commute, the after-work drink,
the Sunday football game or religious service -
how many of those people are consciously following their dream,
training their mind, body, and spirit through that daily repetition?
And how many are mindlessly slogging through each day
out of habit and boredom?
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

a few seek it in the exploration of their own minds,
or in search for knowledge.
- Helen Keller
