Since only voluntary actions can be considered virtuous, it is necessary to examine what it means for an action to be voluntary. An involuntary action is something done by force or through ignorance. An action done through fear or for the sake of some noble deed is more voluntary than involuntary, although they are mixed. For an action to be involuntary, there must be some external principle causing the action and the person must not contribute anything to the action.
