This is simply wrong, people are influenced by a multitude of causes all the time, there is nothing that a person does that is not caused by something, and many times something outside themselves. The citation relating to a person 'not doing something they do not want to do', is based on an extreme example and does not reflect ordinary everyday experience where people are often forced to do something they do not want to do. The extremes do not prove the mundane.
