Jansenius: indifference is not of the essence of freedom; freedom is the agent's mastery of itself
He does not hold that the general character and proper essence of freedom includes any indifference or indeterminacy of the will toward the act called free, such that the will could do the opposite, or at least leave the act undone or hold it back.
In his view freedom consists only in this: the free agent rules itself and its act, and it acts and moves itself rather than being acted on and moved by another. He maintains that this holds even in acts to which the will is fixed necessarily and unchangeably.
Latin
XXX. Si quidem ad communem libertatis rationem, & propriam ejus essentiam, pertinere non existimat voluntatis quandam indifferentiam, & indeterminationem respectu actus qui liber dicitur, per quam voluntas possit contrarium agere, aut saltem actum illum omittere, vel suspendere. Quippe ex ejus mente, libertas solum in eo consistit, quod agens liberum sibi & actui suo dominetur, & seipsum agat & moveat, non autem ab alio agatur & moveatur, quod locum habere contendit etiam in iis actibus, ad quos voluntas determinata est necessario & immutabiliter.
