VIII.9 - The mind gives an order to the body and is at once obeyed, but when it gives an order to itself, it is resisted. The mind commands the hand to move and is so readily obeyed that the order can scarcely be distinguished from its execution. [...] The mind orders itself to make an act of will, and it would not give this order unless it willed to do so; yet it does not carry out its own command.
