Seizure Freedom

Famous quotes containing the words seizure and/or freedom:

    Shut not so soon; the dull-eyed night
    Has not yet begun
    To make a seizure on the light,
    Or to seal up the sun.
    Robert Herrick (1591–1674)

    Old-fashioned determinism was what we may call hard determinism. It did not shrink from such words as fatality, bondage of the will, necessitation, and the like. Nowadays, we have a soft determinism which abhors harsh words, and, repudiating fatality, necessity, and even predetermination, says that its real name is freedom; for freedom is only necessity understood, and bondage to the highest is identical with true freedom.
    William James (1842–1910)
