    This document discusses the philosophical question of whether free will is real by providing a quote from Arthur Schopenhauer that man can act as he chooses but cannot control his own desires and will. It then lists examples such as Patty Hearst's kidnapping in 1974 and the ideas that color, sound, and solid objects are not entirely as they seem to challenge our perceptions of reality and free will.

    cannot will what he wills”
